Buttermilk Falls – Gorge Trail

I finally made the time to finish some of the images from my exploring around Ithaca, NY early last week. These are along the gorge trail in Buttermilk Falls State Park. I parked at the upper lot and walked the trail down to the main falls. The best images where definitely along this trail and making the main falls a slight disappointment once I reached it.

What a great couple of days! I took my daughter down to Binghamton, NY for her college orientation (did I mention the quiet house in a month!) and spent the two days exploring the gorges and waterfalls around Ithaca, NY. I haven’t had much time to go through the images yet, but this is one of my favorites from Monday. I had an amazing time walking the gorge trail in Buttermilk Falls State Park. The area above the main falls is absolutely beautiful. I had to force myself to keep exploring or I would never have made it to the main falls.
