PF Falls is on PRIVATE property - you need permission from owner to take pictures. NO creek walking on this one !

PF Falls is actually downstream of Parsons Falls

You need to get permission from owner to go in and take pictures of this one from different angles.
This falls is NOT down stream of Parson's falls. It's the next gulf north-east of Parson's. I'm going to change my pictures to read " Owasco Hill creek falls".
There is a falls where Parson's falls creek comes out to West Lake road.

Well I've done some homework here at home. And I got my sights set on Spring Thaw too ! I found another falls that looks like one of those that may dry up in summer? But plan on going down in early spring thaw to take some pictures. I've looked at the Falls map and this one isn't on there either.. Attached is a topo map of the area. I'm not revealing where it is until I get some pictures of it. I'd rather be disappointed myself than to have everyone else be too.

This morning I had a big delivery to Moravia, NY. The creeks are really flowing great now, if anyone is interested in getting some photos of waterfalls in this area ? !! On my way down 41A, I've seen a gulf that looked like a possibility of having something there. On my way back trough, I took a couple of photos because of the spring thaw. This area even has signs on roadside thats " no parking ". I was more interested in the gulf action and noticed the signs after I parked and took pictures :lol: The first picture is on the upside of gulf and the second is on the downside of road. There looks to be a small falls of maybe 5 to 10 feet tall, it's in the middle of picture. When I crossed over the bridge at Montville, the water is really flowing hard. Those two main below must be pretty impressive to photograph now !
