This falls became famous in the late 19th & early 20th century, in the Ossipee Park days. It was named Emerald Pool because if you viewed the pool at the base of the falls at the proper angle, and in favorable light, the water would often have a deep green cast to it. This had to be partly because it was surrounded on both sides by huge trees with lots of green leaves or needles, which color was no doubt reflected by the relatively calm water of the pool.
