I found this shot burried in the wrong folder.
When I was hiking up to Warsaw Falls, I saw this little shack up high on the cliffs.

Since I couldnt get my butt out of bed early enough to do the Watkins Glen thing, I found these falls listed on another website and decided to go check them out. This is a very easy creekwalkin Oatka Creek. It starts out on Liberty Street in the village of Warsaw at the village park. You follow a trail from the sledding slope and end up in the creek in a short distance. This might be a total of a mile hike up to the base of the falls, with small cascades along the way. The falls are estimated to be about 80' tall. If you are adventurous, you can scale up the right side and get some nice views of the falls as well as a small falls that empties from underneath a railroad bridge. Much like Corbetts. If you go up to the tracks, and make a left and follow the corn field for a hundred feet, you get a breathtaking view of the falls from above. Worth a visit!

Great photos of an excellent hike.

I have a profile in the works, but I'm stuck on ownership. I have heard that this is private, but the owners allow visitors (and I visited based on this). But I don't want to publish directions or false information, so I have been sitting on my photos. I wonder if I should just publish the photos and description sans directions/location?

Have you tried contacting the village of Warsaw? They may be able to give you ownership info.

[Matt]

no, primarily because they have no contact info online.

I didnt see any no trespassing signs anywhere. The only sign I saw was for no hunting.

[Matt]

yeah... same here- I just don't want to turn someone's property into a tourist attraction. If I were to create a large web page based on it, it may do just that. And who know what problems it could cause for them.
i think I may proceed without directions and with disclaimers.
