Another one of the hundreds of falls in northern New York that are
unnamed, this small waterfall is located just north of the village
of Evans Mills. These falls are on private land so please
respect the landowner's rights. We found him to be very
cordial when we approached him and he graciously allowed us access
to take these photos.
You can find these falls by taking US Route 11 north from
Watertown. Turn on Leray Street (CR 46) and enter the
village. Take a right on Main Street, which is the second
right on Leray Street after leaving Route 11. The first left
after leaving the village limits is the Elm Ridge Road. The
first right on this road is the Anstead Road. These falls
are located off the Elm Ridge Road, just past the corner of the
Anstead Road, within sight of the road and a very short distance
upstream from where the Trout Brook enters the Indian River.
The Trout Brook flows into the Indian River a few feet
downstream from these falls. That continues through Black
Lake and then empties into the Oswegatchie River just a few miles
upstream from where the Oswegatchie enters the St. Lawrence River.
