Directions
From NY 3 between Harrisville and Star
Lake, the junction with NY 58 marks one end of that route.
About 1/4 mile in, a bridge crosses the Oswegatchie,
and this region can be seen upstream. Alternative
views can be had by continuing across the bridge and
taking a right on CR 27.

One of the many unnamed
falls and rapids in St. Lawrence County, this section of the Oswegatchie
River is in the hamlet of Fine. This is being included as
a waterfall because there are other named waterfalls that are very
similar to this section of river. Since it is a prominent
section of river and doesn't have a common name, some would probably
qualify it as a rapids rather than a waterfall. The Oswegatchie
River at this point narrows to just a few feet. The water
channels through this narrow and then turns and goes around a number
of small islands. The Oswegatchie River flows into the St. Lawrence River in Ogdensburg,
New York.
