From the northeast side of the highway in the area where the
creek runs under the road, there are trails that take you to the river bank.
The middle section, a total drop of about six feet, is under the
bridge and comprised of a series of steps and slides. If you
look closely on the lower side of the bridge, there are still icicles
hanging. We were there on April 13, 2012, which was an unusually
warm, dry and early spring, but ice and snow were still present
here.
The North Fork of the Boquet River joins the south fork just
downstream from here, shortly before the routes 73 and 9 interchange.
The Boquet then flows into Lake Champlain near Willsboro, New York.
