A water falls and limestone onyx occurrence located 3.4 km (2.1 miles) NNW of Supai. Named by Richard Evans in the 1880's for James Mooney, a prospector who fell to his death from a homemade ladder over a precipice formed by the falls. His body was buried four years later perfectly preserved by the travertine spray (AZ-T101/p.419).
