Details:

This is a steep slide waterfall in a heavily wooded gorge. There are other tributary falls in the area. Keep your eyes peeled and be careful...slippery rocks are still very hard. UPDATE: According to information from Rich & Sue Freeman (authors of "200 Waterfalls in Central & Western New York: A Finder's Guide" the falls were posted as of September of 2005. Please be respectful of the landowner's wishes.
