Waterfalls on the edge of the Piedmont are called "fall line waterfalls." The fall line is the boundary between the Piedmont and the Coastal Plain regions, where rivers and streams flow from hard, resistant rock to softer, more easily eroded rock. This change in geology creates ideal conditions for the formation of waterfalls as the water cascades over the edge of the harder rock layers.

How did colonist get to Piedmont?
The Piedmont is a plateau which begins at the fall line. The fall line is called that because it is the place where waterfalls separate the Piedmont Plateau from the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Boats can go up the rivers from the ocean to the fall line. They stop there. That is how they got to the Piedmont Plateau. Some supplies were reloaded on boats on the other side of the falls. Some places had locks built around the falls.
