I just thought of another idea looking at my Gazeteer again. I wonder if it could be accessed by walking along the Livonia and Avon railroad grade? I'll have to check that out some time.

What does anyone know about these falls? These are a bit further up the creek. According to the waterfall map page these could be Decker Falls? But they are definately higher than 10'.

Unknown # of falls and heights.
Unknown ownership. (Currently corresponding with Town Clerk in regards to ownership, but it has been slow going)
Dear Mr. Hobart,
I apologize for not responding to your letter this past summer. But, since you have followed up with various inquiries regarding the Wagner gully property in the town of Pulteney, you should be informed of the position of the trustees that manage the property.
They understand your intentions, but due to liability issues, cannot allow you to use the property for recreational, photographic, or any other purpose.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Walt Peek,
Trustee

Morganville Falls
I have obtained permission to access these falls and plan to visit sometime this spring.

Another falls nearby is Morganville Falls near Batavia. About 25 feet high I think. I've only been at the crest of that. All the downstream access points are heavily posted.

I'd love to go with you when you go or find out who owns the property and get permission. I used to camp down there when I was a kid and haven't been back in years.
