Angel Falls -
spills from the Auyantepui into what is known as the Devil's
canyon 979 Meters below. The indigenous people call it
Kerepakupai-merú but is was named Angel Falls after
Jimmy Angel, an American bush pilot and gold-hunting
adventurer, who discovered it in 1937. The waters fall
freely some 807 meters (2,648 feet) and reach the bottom of
the valley as a misty spray that gathers into a small creek
which eventually finds its way into the north-bound Churun
River.
