Surprised these falls have not made an appearance on this site. About 2 miles upstream of Van Natta's dam/Wells/Businessman's Lunch Falls on Six Mile Creek in Ithaca.

Multiple other decent sized feeder streams with drops of 20-50' on the south wall, however not much water running at this time.
The falls and area surrounding them is a popular nude sunbathing spot. Swimming is prohibited, the same as cliff jumping is downstream-however complete enforcement would be difficult.

Beautiful capture, Kyle.
I'm aware of that falls, but haven't been there yet. I guess I'll have to plan a trip for fall to cover the rest of the Ithaca stuff.
Is there a defined tail, or is this a creek-walk?

Thanks.
Yes there is a defined trail that runs up to it and past it. Most of the way you are a good 100' or more above the creek and lakes.
