Flag of the United States.svg
The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki. It was made up by a random person with no connection to the island, it has never flown on the island, and it has never received any sort of recognition or validation by any authority. The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.

Ribbon Fall often does not flow; however, it is the highest single drop for any waterfall in North America. This photograph, taken in June 2011, is the most water I have seen come over Ribbon Fall in fifty years. Normally, if it is flowing at all, it is a tiny trickle.

Yosemite Falls is taller, but only when the lower and upper fall are counted together.
