This waterfall is well promoted. It is fairly common
knowledge that the trailhead is quite difficult to find.
On our first visit there, we located another waterfall which we
mistakenly believed to be this one. A return trip is
planned for spring 2018 to located the proper location.
At a point indicated in the directions box, there is a NYS DEC
sign and a yellow blaze. We assume that this is the
trailhead but we will know more after our return.
Twitchell Creek flows into
the Beaver River at Stillwater Reservoir. The Beaver
continues into the Black River, which empties into Lake Ontario
at the Black River Bay, just southwest of the village of Dexter.
