Falls so Cool They be Ice Sessions Woods Falls, Burlington February 2014 The Connecticut Waterfalls 2013 guidebook notes that these falls are “south of Burlington," which would mean Bristol.

Westledge Trail Falls
Falls Along Westledge Trail Unnamed/Northgate Falls, Simsbury October 2008 These falls are included in the new (2013) Connecticut Waterfalls guidebook, so I’m adding this page several years after visiting.
