Alder Creek Falls #3You can see Falls #4 from the top of Falls #3.  Just work you way up the river left side of the creek to get into position to view and.photograph this 6' waterfall.

After you have seen Falls #4 you can return to your car for a total hike of just over a mile or you can continue on to several different destinations.  We hiked to and along Goose Pond, which was very beautiful, for a total hike of just over 4 miles.

Alder Creek flows into Schroon River.  This flows through Schroon Lake which joins the Hudson River just southwest of Warrensburg.  This, in turn, flows to the Atlantic Ocean in New York City directly to Lake Champlain.
