The Funnel

County: Lewis
Town: Lyonsdale
USGS Map: Port Leyden
Waterway: Moose River
Latitude: N 43.62327o

Drop: ~xx'

To get to here, travel NYSR 12 to Lyons Falls.  Find the bridge crossing the Black River and continue on the Lyonsdale Road.  Shortly after the Lyonsdale Road becomes the Marmon Road, the Hunkins Road will be on the left.  This ends in a "T" on the Fowlerville Road.  Go left and you will shortly cross the Fowlerville Bridge.

This location has been named by the whitewater community that is very active on this stretch of river.  This particular site is about 1/2 mile downstream of the Fowlerville Falls.  Although difficult to access on foot, we are working on getting to it.  It is not the 5' ledge just below Fowlerville Falls (which we have dubbed Below Fowlerville Falls), but downstream of that and around the corner.

The Moose River flows into the Black River just a few miles downstream from this location in Lyons Falls.  The Black empties into Lake Ontario in the Jefferson County community of Dexter.
