Waterfall videoThe next drop, which we are referring to as Falls #4, is another 1/4 mile or so upstream.  It is a four-part waterfall having about a 25' total drop.

This tributary flows into the Butternut Brook just above Butternut Brook Falls #4.  Butternut Brook empties into Lake George.  The flow then goes north through LaChute, Lake Champlain and then through Canada on the Richelieu River.  It eventually empties into the St. Lawrence River.

Webmaster's note:  Our thanks to Gary Dilmore for the pictures, directions and information on this waterfall.
