OXBOW FALLS MADISON NY 4-12-2015_00003.JPG

The photo above can be seen from the roadside. You can either park at the pull off for the overlook just before reaching the park. Other option is to park in the parking area for the park and walk back down the road to where the guardrails start.

 

Oxbow Falls County Park

Helderburg Escarpment

Clockville Creek 100 ft Ribbon

Short to the top of falls

There are 3 waterfalls in the park. From the parking area follow the trail to top of falls. There is a trail on both sides of the falls. I like taking the trail on the right side of the falls, all the way down. There are smaller falls along that section. As well as it takes you around to the bottom of the Main falls, and bottom of the second falls. If you take the trail on the left side from the top, it takes you around the other side for a long distant view of the two falls.

Perryville Falls

Canaserga Creek 150 ft Cascade Private

I spoke with a landowner, and the property is owned by a relative. When I stopped to get permission, after being directed to do so, no one was home….My luck…Plans to return in the future.



Clockville Creek Falls-Crandall Road falls on (prior named)

Unnamed Stream Cascade Roadside Private

The owner was working in his yard and granted us permission to take photos of the falls. I have been to this location many times over looking for Clockville Creek Falls. A friend of mine took me to the location you see here in the photos. The location is on private property. We obtained permission to photograph the falls.

The resource I had had for years showed there was the Clockville Creek Falls, in this same location. I was not looking for the falls right in someones side yard. I was looking on Clockville Road at the intersection of Clockville Road and Crandall Road. The falls are actually located on Crandall Road just about two houses up from the intersection on Crandall Road.

I am like 99 percent sure I have the correct location of Clockville Creek Falls.

Canastota Falls and Dam

North Country Trail/link Trail

Canastota Creek Dam and Falls

From nelson road to Canastota Falls is .6 mile round trip. The total approximate distance from the parking on Oxbow Road and following the trail to Nelson Road it is 1.7 miles one way.

This was very easy to find. The trail looks well maintained. I have included a picture of the area where you would have to turn off main trail (see page). Just listen for the falls. This section of the trail has the two seasonal waterfalls. More looks like run offs from somewhere further up.

I had visited this waterfall a few years back. There were people here at the falls then. I recently revisited this area again and there are posted signs everywhere. Shown in the first photo was the only photo I could get and this was taken at a business parking lot on the main highway.

THIS WAS ONE ONE OF THOSE LAST MINUTE ROAD TRIP DECISIONS.

THERE WAS THE REVISITS TO OXBOW FALLS, STOCKBRIDGE MAIN AND MIDDLE FALLS, REXFORD FALLS AND THE CASCADES WHICH I HAD ALSO CALLED QUARRY ROAD FALLS.

THIS TIME WHEN TRYING TO REVISIT THE CASCADES, THERE WAS POSTED SIGNS EVERYWHERE. THE NEW VIEW IS FROM BELOW IN THE PARKING LOT OF A LOCAL BUSINESS LOOKING UP AT IT.

AFTER MANY YEARS OF LOOKING FINALLY FOUND CLOCKVILLE CREEK FALLS.

MY ROAD WARRIOR AS I CALL MY FRIEND TOOK ME TO THE LOCATIONS ON NORTH STREET, AS I HAD LISTED IT, AS THE STREAM IS UNNAMED AND APPEARS TO BE SEASONAL.

ALSO AFTER MANY TIMES OF VISITING OXBOW FALLS, I NEVER KNEW OF THE OTHER FALLS LOCATED RIGHT THERE BESIDE THE ROAD BEFORE YOU PULL INTO THE PARKING FOR OXBOW. IN FACT THERE IS A PULL OFF PARKING AREA, WHICH IS THE OVERLOOK THERE ON OXBOW ROAD. YOU CAN SEE THE TOP OF THE FALLS THERE OR JUST GO TO THE PARK AND WALK BACK DOWN THE ROAD. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE SOMETHING THAT IS THERE ALL THE TIME AND ONLY WITH SPRING RUN OFF. OXBOW ITSELF IS HARD TO CATCH WITH MUCH WATER RUNNING OVER THE FALLS. I HAVE HAD ONE YEAR WHERE OXBOW WAS RUNNING REALLY NICE.
