In its original form, the falls could be characterized more as rapids extending over a length of the river, than as a point-like discontinuity in a river such as 2365: 1379: 1369: 144: 36: 1389: 2391: 397: 294: 356:

Prior to modification for industrial and navigational purposes, the Falls of the Ohio spanned the entire width of the Ohio River. Native Americans and early European explorers heard the crisp roar of the Ohio River crashing down the cascade falls more than 10 miles away.

Devonian limestone rock is still left exposed, and is accessible to visitors today. The best time for visitation is during the low water season of the Ohio River between August and October. Removal of fossils is prohibited.

The taming of the Ohio River at the falls, with the attendant reduction in local flow velocity, has of late led to the covering over of the 1425: 2442: 1838: 1284: 1122: 854: 1609: 2447: 1434: 943: 842: 1472: 933: 563: 2462: 100: 2457: 1602: 731: 72: 1938: 1804: 2477: 1867: 79: 348:
