Aspetuck Falls

AspecTuck and Remove Lens Cover Aspetuck Falls, Washington September 2019 The little Village of New Preston is actually bigger than the shops that everyone associates with New Preston. It encompasses pretty much the entire northwest quadrant of Washington and Lake Waramaug. But it's definitely the artsy cutesy … [Read more...]

Johnson Pond Falls

My Bolton Tell-All Johnson Pond Falls, Bolton April 2020 Alright, look. These falls don't appear in any guidebook, nor on any list. They don't even have a name - I made up "Johnson Pond Falls." But since I'm divulging everything I know about the town, this is my Bolton tell-all. They tumble from Johnson Pond at … [Read more...]

Griffin Cascades

Merritts a Quick Look Griffin Cascades/Merritt Preserve, Bloomfield May 2020 You won't believe this - and you shouldn't believe this - but it took me maybe three trips to finally get these two pictures of the Griffin Cascades. Mostly because I never really cared to get a stellar picture. And also because it is … [Read more...]

Still River Cascades

What a Dumb Name for a River Still River Cascades Winchester (Winsted) Seriously, "Still River?" That literally makes no sense. Especially when we're talking about some roarin' cascade action up in here. Just look at these bad boys: Oooh yeahhhh... The Still River is a medium-sized stream which rises … [Read more...]

Tariffville Gorge Cascades

Not Too Taxing Tariffville Gorge Cascades Simsbury & East Granby According to one map, I just learned that the Farmington River through Simsbury and East Granby is actually entirely Simsbury’s. Huh. That’s not usually the case - and I'm not sure it's accurate anyway. Something I’ve known now for several years is … [Read more...]

I Made Up The Following Waterfall Names… Broad Brook Falls, East Windsor Paper Mill Falls, East Hartford June & July 2019 I was listening to my friend Peter Marteka on NPR recently and he was discussing waterfalls with the host.

Taughannick Falls

TaughanSICK! Taughannick Falls at Mohegan Sun Montville For some reason Connecticut casinos need fake waterfalls. Having been thoroughly disappointed by the fake falls at Foxwoods, I wasn't expecting much better up at Mohegan Sun. I was, however, expecting better simply because Mohegan is just straight up nicer … [Read more...]

Brushmill Waterfall & Covered Bridge

Brushmill Waterfall by The Brushmill by the Waterfall Brushmill Waterfall, Chester I can't be the only person that finds the fact that the restaurant here - The Brushmill by the Waterfall - is weird for naming themselves after what is clearly not a real waterfall. And since it's not a real waterfall, I want it to … [Read more...]

Chapman Falls

Devilishly Handsome Chapman Falls, East Haddam I am all-too aware that my pictures of Chapman Falls are some of the weakest on the internet. I know that hundreds of people visit Devil's Hopyard State Park every day and take better pictures of these falls. I've been to the state park, one of the more popular … [Read more...]
