Update and Top 10 Submitters

The database has been updated with several new photographs, updated location or other data for existing waterfalls as well as a slew of new waterfalls.  32 waterfalls were submitted/updated in this update.  The database is now up to 620 waterfalls, with still only 590 waterfalls on the map.  The waterfall map will be updated after the next round of submissions are submitted and added.

 

The Top 10 County list has been updated, and Laurel has made it to 80 waterfalls.  McCreary is not far behind.  Also, Elliott County left the list as Kenton County passed it and Whitley County finally made it into the Top 10 list for the first time.

 

Lastly, there is a new Top 10 list, as seen below, and will be updated here.

The following is the list of the top submitters of waterfalls to the database.  If you would like to add to the database please submit waterfalls and other landforms here.

Which County Hits 100 First?

The submissions just keep coming in.  Thanks to you all!  With all the wonderful people submitting waterfalls, Laurel County has now rocketed back ahead of McCreary County for the most confirmed waterfalls in the state!  The database is now up to 602 waterfalls, with 590 waterfalls on the map.  The coolest part of the recent submissions to me has been all the people checking out possible waterfalls and changing them to confirmed!

Now the question is will Laurel or McCreary hit 100 confirmed waterfalls first?

McCreary County on the Top

Thanks to a massive amount of submissions from Mike Hoffman, McCreary County now has the most confirmed waterfalls, beating out Laurel County by a handful.

The database is now just a few shy of 600 waterfalls.  The map has not been updated yet to reflect all the recently submitted waterfalls, but they are in the database (use the search feature).  I'll get the map updated on the next update, once over 600 waterfalls.

Thanks to Mike as well as Stephanie & Tim Stoops for the large amount of submittals.  Also thanks to all the others that have submitted waterfalls in the last few weeks.  45 waterfalls were submitted in just the last 2 weeks by 9 different people!!!  That is crazy and awesome.
