Lake George Quadrangle

After viewing the lower falls, continue up the road for another 0.3 miles to the middle falls which is easily viewed from the roadside.  In this area, there were No Trespassing signs and there were also signs that stated it was a Public Fishing Stream.

This is a fairly typical situation where the DEC has an agreement with landowners that fishermen can access the stream with fishing as their focus.  We have joked in the past that if you simply want to view a waterfall in a region such as this, take a fishing pole and tackle box with you and you should be good to go.  Be forewarned that this is a joke.  We do not know of the idea having been tested!

Anway, scramble down the short embankment, no more than 10' from the road, to take some photos.  The Middle Falls is a cascade with a 10' drop.

Our thanks to Gary Dilmore for the photos and information on this location.

English Brook is at the north end of the village of Lake George.  This flows into Lake George, which, in turn, flows through La Chute into Lake Champlain.  The flow then goes north through Canada on the Richelieu River and empties into the St. Lawrence River.
