Canton Quadrangle

This location is just past the Elm Creek Middle Falls.  Like that one, you can park on the side of the road for somewhat distant views of this waterfall.  All of the property on this side of the road in front of the falls is posted, so you will not be able to get any closer.

This is a very nice little slide waterfall that drops an estimated ten feet over this short stretch of the creek.

There is an unnamed waterfall indicated on topographical maps just downstream from here.  Since this is the second of two waterfalls upstream of that one, we have tentatively dubbed it Elm Creek Upper Falls.

The Elm Creek flows into the Harrison Creek in the town of Canton.  This flows into the Grasse River which flows into the St. Lawrence River in Massena.
