This location is actually a series of three drops.
At about 1.7 miles along the trail,
the drops will be on the stream on your right feet.
Three
drops comprising Shallow Pond Outlet Falls are another 1/4 miles
or so upstream.
Shallow Pond Outlet flows into
the Stillwater Reservoir, which in turn flows into the Beaver
River. The Beaver
continues into the Black River, which empties into Lake Ontario
at the Black River Bay, just southwest of the village of Dexter.
