This page lists Northern New York waterfalls by river

Due to issues with the scripting we used for the menu-driven list we formerly used, this page has been created. 

Each of the following groups are headed with the name of a river or stream, listed in boldface font, that flow directly into Lake Ontario, the St. Lawrence River, Lake Champlain or the Atlantic Ocean.  Below this header, in the left-most column, are the waterfalls on that waterway and tributaries that flow into it, in order, from the mouth of the waterway and heading upstream.  Each subsequent column lists waterfalls and waterways on the tributaries.

For example, the first group lists the Ausable River.  Ausable Chasm, Alice Falls and Anderson Falls are waterfalls on the Ausable.  The West Branch enters the Ausable upstream of Anderson Falls.  On this branch, the first waterfall you encounter as you head upstream is Wilmington Flume.  Stag Brook enters the West Branch upstream of Wilmington Flume and contains Stag Brook Falls.

A simple rule of thumb for using this page is that waterfalls are listed as a link to the page for that falls.  They will show up in blue before you activate the link.  When you point your mouse at the link, it will turn a bright red and then will be a fainter red after visiting that page.  Any listing not linked (shown in black) is a waterway.  To the right of the waterway are the waterfalls on that stream and tributaries to it.  We are providing a menu to allow users to hyper-text to each river.
