I grew up in Owego, during the 60's, and we used to ride out bikes out to picnic, hike, and swim these falls in the summer. My understanding is that somewhere along the line someone got hurt, and so now it is posted. It is not a public park, but it is right alongside the road and no residence in sight, so hard to monitor..which is why we probably got away with it for as long as we did. Thanks for the pics, they brought back great memories. We still live in the area but haven't gone back since being told it was posted.
I went here today. It is steep to get up. I didn't hear water so I wandered around for awhile until I found the gully. It was empty. There hasn't been rain in awhile. I will try again after a heavy rainfall.
