This has got to be one of the most impressive falls in the area to me ... that Ihave seen to this date. I am glad you got to check them out Backpacker. Great Shots by the way :)

Since the last post here is from '08 I thought I would post some newer pics. Taken may 30th 2010. Was definitely a fun trip and worth a revisit, next time we won't wander around the entire trail system looking for the falls though :shock:

Very nice!
“There’s an inconsequentiality to our lives that living in the wilderness shows up. Mountain are real, they set their limits, they set ours. They expose us, make us vulnerable and strong at the same time. “

I went to Caz years ago and we'd love going down there. We went back up a couple years for vacation and loved going to Chittenango again. It was a great trip. But I had trouble shooting the falls due to the light. I tend to do things early morning and we slept in a bit and didn't get there until maybe mid-morning. even by then it was 98 degrees and 95% humidity outside of the gorge so you can image what it was like down in there! But when is the best time to shoot these falls? I assume later in the day you have the sun right on them. In the am you have glare from shooting at the sun.
