On a stretch of the Oswegatchie River near the Edwards/Fine
town line and between the South Edwards Dam and Grease Falls, there
are six drops.
The property around this drop is private so it is a water access only
situation.
This drop is about 1.3 mile upstream from the canoe launch.
In keeping with our policy of giving
names to these unnamed falls base on the waterway they are on,
and since this is the second of the drops you encounter from the
canoe launch, we have chosen this name. It
should not be confused with Oswegatchie Falls, which is about
2.2 miles downstream from this location.
You will pass Oswegatchie River Falls #1 and a stretch of
rapids on the paddle to
this one. These will have to be portaged.
The Oswegatchie River flows to the St. Lawrence River in the
city of Ogdensburg.
