Onondaga County, Manlius Town, New York

Stream or River: Limestone Creek Tributaries To Chittenango Creek

Dates Visited:
6/14/2015

Maps and Resources used to gather information:
Western New York all outdoors Atlas & Field Guide Publication 2008 135 E5
World Waterfalls Database

Directions: From the intersection of Highway 173 and Highway 92 in manlius, take Highway 173 southwest for .8 miles. Turn right onto Glencliffe Road and drive .5 miles to a parking area on the right just before the curve.

Length of Hike: Approximate 1.6 miles round trip on the direct trail to the base of the falls.

Parking areas: N42.99742 W75.99968

From the parking area you will enter the trail to the left. Take the trail to the left. Walk about .3 miles and you will come to another trail intersection. Go left here. You will go down a little hill to the stream bed. Follow the stream. You will quickly come to what is left of a dam, which is now very colorful with graffiti. Continue on from here for another .4 miles to the base of the falls. Between the dam and the falls you will have passed by a campsite. If only people would pick up their garbage!! This is not what appears to be a true campsite but more of a party place. We chose to do the loop, and took the trail that goes along the top of the cliff to the top of the falls. Use caution, as you get closer to the top the trail gets closer to the edge. The trail becomes more of a path then a trail, walking on rocks or boulders as some would say. When you get to the top, there are paths to get you down to the base of the falls. Use caution, as this can be dangerous with rain and snow or ice. From the base looking at the three waterfalls from left to right is Staircase Falls, in the middle is Tall Twin Falls and then Cascade Falls.

Smokey Hollow Falls and Black Creek Reservoir (Historical) 5-2-2015

The following were locations that I wanted to check out and see what I would find.

Smokey Hollow Falls, Herkimer County, New York. This small waterfall is located in Smokey Hollow, and I am not sure of the proper name. There is no access to get down in as it is posted, roadside view only.

Smokey Hollow Falls 5-2-2015

Black Creek Reservoir is located in Herkimer County, New York. The property all around this is now posted. The landowner took the time and walked us in to this and was telling us that the dam was taken down about 12 years ago. He also did confirm information regarding a small waterfall further upstream, and suggested I go back and he would take me to it. I took a few extra photos of the area as I was impressed by the fact that where we were standing once was completely all water.

Black Creek Reservoir Historical 5-2-2015

The photo above the gentleman stated that all the way to the tree line in the background was water.

The above is all that is left of the dam.

The next couple of photos is a couple of locations I wanted to check out and they were really not something great.

Big Bill Brook

Hurricane Brook

I was also passing by Prospect Falls, and grab another photo. Every time I am in this location I can never hit it when any volume of water is flowing.

Prospect Quarry Falls, Wilmurt Falls 5-2-2015
Today was another eventful day!

Our first stop was Prospect Quarry Falls located in Herkimer County, New York, yet access from the Oneida County side.

I had visited this location before but was actually up on the bridge, viewing down on it. This is way more beautiful up close.

Wilmurt Falls is located in Herkimer County, New York There is a small park here, but the road and access is heavily posted. We had to park down the road, just off on a seasonal highway and walk back up to the bridge.

Information not yet posted. I am getting way behind, but in the meantime having fun!
