Falls bagging (or waterfall bagging) is a hobby amongst bushwalkers and to some extent people that are involved in Geocaching, who seek out waterfalls. It is a blossoming hobby in the same vein as peak bagging. Some consider it a game, others just a personal challenge.
Falls baggers are constantly in search of a new, little known set of waterfalls. To properly "bag" a waterfall, the bagger must visit it personally and take a photograph of it. The photograph is optional, as the act of falls bagging is generally a purely personal competition, but a photograph helps to share your experience with others.
To truly be a Falls Bagger, one must be diligent enough to have visited over 100 waterfalls. It may take sometimes risking their life, trespassing on private property, breaking traffic laws, and obsessing to the point of memorizing directions.
