Waterfall Wednesday: Lower Taughannock Falls
Today we get to talk about the last waterfall in the Waterfall Wednesday blog series! We’re back at Taughannock Falls State Park in Trumansburg, New York one last time for Lower Falls. I think I take for granted sometimes growing up in the region and being familiar with the pronunciation…
Waterfall Wednesday: Unnamed Falls
This week we go to an unnamed waterfall in Buttermilk Falls State Park that almost wasn’t part of my 50 New York Waterfalls project. I was conflicted about including an unnamed waterfall in the project when all the other waterfalls were main features with their own names. Ultimately decided this…
Waterfall Wednesday: Sweedler Preserve
If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may remember me previously mentioning Sweedler Preserve and my little mishap with reading the map (reread here).

Waterfall Wednesday: Stewart Falls
For today’s waterfall, we’re going back to Cascadilla Gorge in Ithaca, New York. Stewart Falls is one of the main named waterfalls of this gorge (Giant’s Staircase is the other).

Waterwall Wednesday: Ithaca Falls
There’s a lot of waterfalls in Ithaca – a LOT – but this one is one of my favorites and the first that I visited – Ithaca Falls. When it comes to waterfalls in Ithaca, I’m a bit of a newbie. I knew that Buttermilk Falls existed but until this…
