Thought I would share some photo's of Lampson Falls in Clare NY. This is really a gorgeous fall, and is handicap acessible to a point mid way down the falls. The rest of the way to the bottom is on walking trails. Lots of glacial rock surround the river here, making a nice place to bask in the sun with the sound of the falls. Located on CR 27, town of Clare, St. Lawrence county.

midway down the falls, looking at the upper half

And looking down...

From the bottom, there is a great little sandy beach right here. Perfect swimming spot

Walking out on the rocks gives a nice view from several spots.

These are located right on CR 27, you can't miss the big sign on the side of the road.

A few new ones taken this spring. There was still some snow on the ground, and the water was flowing great![img2]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y108/R ... /001-2.jpg[/img2]
