Another one of the
hundreds of falls in northern New York that are unnamed, this
small waterfall is located just north of the village of Evans
Mills. These falls are on private land so please respect
the landowner's rights. We found him to be very cordial
when we approached him and he graciously allowed us access to
take these photos.
These falls are within sight of the road and a very short
distance upstream from where the Trout Brook enters the Indian
River.
The Trout Brook flows into the Indian River a few feet downstream
from these falls. That continues through Black Lake and
then empties into the Oswegatchie River just a few miles upstream
from where the Oswegatchie enters the St. Lawrence River.
