I checked didn't see this one listed! Public park only 1,2 miles long, and accessible to all. If you bring your dog? Keep him on a lease. This was one of "My Quests" a year or so ago. Went back today to try my ND filters out with my P510 camera. There are numerous objects to photograph in here: Old buildings, water pools, and waterfall. There is another little waterfalls but it's only about 2 feet tall, but it is unique! Today I just worked on the Aqueduct for my photos. Specs for this photo:
f6.6, 1/10 sec, ISO 100, Exposure Bias -0.3 and ND8 filter. Comments Welcome!

Thanks for posting. It looks familiar. I think Matt Champlin had photographed this one and had another name for it... Skaneateles Mills?

According to Google maps, it is called "Mill road Nature Trail" and "Charlie Major Nature Trail".
I was there for a while today and took some photos of Aqua-duct. Then I got a photo of a Red Tail hawk, which was hunting squirrels! Marty

Yes!! He says he goes to this place a lot. He walks in and scopes for squirrels. If he sees some in near by trees, he lets the hawk fly and with a stick, he taps on the tree were squirrel is and the hawk goes in for the kill. Then he takes the squirrel home and feeds it to his hawk! He told me if he doesn't see any squirrels in the area, then you cannot release the hawk. If he does it would going hunting on it's own and not come back. He would lose his hawk!
