The day before I left to bring my daughter to her college orientation I was searching the NY Falls site for candidates to explore around Ithaca, NY. I knew there where too many potential locations and I was hoping to find a few good ones lumped together. I had a few definitely on my list like Buttermilk Falls and Wells Falls but for some reason I confused the directions for Ithaca Falls and Cascadilla Falls. I suppose if I had just printed out what I wanted I would not have had any issues.

Cascadilla Falls is on Cascadilla Creek right in the city of Ithaca. I was able to park along a side street and walk a short distance to the entrance of the trail. I also did not read the entire website for this falls as the trail is blocked about half way to the falls from the end I started at. I wasn’t able to reach the main falls and since I still had another waterfall on my list for the day I didn’t search out the other end of the trail and work my way down to the falls. It wasn’t a big issue though since the creek is full of beautiful cascades and I was busy capturing all that I could.

I really liked this section of the creek because of the shape created by the water and rocks.  Call me crazy but I see a person in the white water with their hands out stretched and the legs straddling the big rock.
