Great finds!!! More falls close to home for me!! I will be checking those out before New Years, I hope. I've often looked at at the topo of that whole area around New Michigan and the countless other state forests up there, and figured there to be quite a few undocumented falls throughout. Just haven't had the chance to get up there and explore too much. I'm hoping next summer to do a bit of lo-tech orienteering (map, compass, and pencil) through a couple state forests, in Chenango County and other parts of the NY State, in search of falls. I've got a couple "primary targets" in mind and I'm sure I'll find more along the way.

No location is listed on Ruths website (private)...I had long ago wondered where this falls lay...before NYFalls was born. I had nearly forgotten about it, until last evening when my gfs father mentioned a rollover accident that occured near Devils Bedroom. Devils Bedroom, Devils Bedroom I said to myself...ah ha! I recalled that it was a falls listed on Ruths page. I asked him where Devils Bedroom was located, and below is an birds eye image from Bing and location marked on Google.

One I've had in mind for quite a while is school no. 7 gully, north of naples, in between clarks glen and middlesex. Every time I drive to Naples on 245, especially in the spring, I make sure to look west near caward cross road. An impressive hanging-style waterfall is visible from across the valley. According to the topo there is a drop of about 200' from the main falls to the road. Ruth's waterfalls has some upstream photos of smaller falls but not any of the main falls.

Good find on Devil's Bedroom.
I had a feeling that's where School 7 was too but wasn't sure.

And Im actually wondering if what you believe is School 7 fallls might be Henrie Gully...as her description is that it flows into the "West River tributary of Canandaigua Lake in Yates County." That puts it in the right area. The heights of the falls seem more acurate in relation to aerial views of the gully.
