The Finger Lakes Land Trust recently acquired a property along the western shore of Otisco Lake and intends to open it to the public:

The property, located north of the Causeway on the lake's western side, features mature forests, several tributaries to Otisco Lake and a deep ravine with a scenic 40-foot waterfall. The shoreline portion of the property features a small point as well as rugged cliffs. The site provides prime habitat for bald eagles, osprey, and a variety of water birds.

This is the first I've heard of a waterfall on the West side of Otisco, and I can't find any reference to it elsewhere. Anyone know anything about this?
