Comments/Notes:
As you are walking down the road you will see several small cascades and some can be seen from the road. A short scramble/bushwhack will lead you to another waterfall here N43.83862 W74.89346 Please use caution in this area. Not a good location for children. For the main waterfall, the trail is easy and short. You can continue on the trail to the base of the waterfall. It is steep in some spots, and close to the edge of the waterfall.
