The falls are located about ten yards back behind
some trees. There is a trail. This is probably a seasonal waterfall.
Since there is no charted waterway at this point, it may even be
run-off. We have given it this name because it is below Giant
Washbowl, which is a pond on the side of Giant Mountain. The water
from this stream probably finds its way across the road to Chapel
Pond which empties through Beede Brook to the East Branch of the
Ausable River. The East Branch and the West Branch join forces
downstream at Au Sable Forks to form the Ausable River. This
waterfall rich river empties into Lake Champlain in the town of
Peru.
