Bunnell’s & Burlington Falls

June 14, 2018 by Steve Leave a Comment

A Little Burly, Bro Bunnell’s/Burlington Falls, Burlington June 2018 I don’t take pleasure in breaking the law. I’ve very rarely done so in my life and when I have, I’m talking about silly stuff like getting to these falls. To do so, I parked in a No Parking Tow Zone and then trespassed on New Britain Water … [Read more...]

Enders Falls

April 17, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

This is No Game Enders Falls, Granby Multiple visits A stairway has been built along the trail since my visits below. An alternate title for this page is “Wiggin Out.” That’s for all you sci-fi nerds out there. “This is Not Game”... “Wiggin Out”... both refer to Orson Scott Card’s seminal novel Ender’s Game of … [Read more...]

Carpenter’s Falls

April 9, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

Couldn’t Build a Better Falls Carpenter’s Falls, Granby April 2018 As of this writing, I’m trying to sort out my “Complete Guide to Granby” and you may be surprised to learn there’s a lot going on here. At least for those of us who are into hiking and exploring the woods. I’ll spare you the confusion of it all … [Read more...]

Private Bozrah Falls

The Boz... Falls Unnamed Private Bozrah Falls, Bozrah March 2018 Bozrah. The town strikes fear into the hearts of ... Oh I don’t know what I’m talking about. Bozrah is Bozrah.

Cargill Falls

July 12, 2017 by Steve Leave a Comment

Just Wait a Cotton Pickin' Minute... Cargill Falls, Putnam May 2014 & February 2017 Cargill Falls is probably the thing in Putnam that most people associate with Putnam. Either the falls or the growing and cool little art community. The falls are more or less in the center of town, they are pretty, and they are … [Read more...]

Tartia Falls

June 26, 2017 by Steve Leave a Comment

"Tartia, Tartia, Tartia!" Tartia Falls, East of Middle Hampton April, 2017 Everyone loves a good roadside waterfall.

Talcott Ravine/Dobsonville Falls

May 18, 2017 by Steve Leave a Comment

Same Dam Falls Talcott Ravine Falls, Vernon May 2017 & June 2020 Sometime I disagree with Connecticut Waterfalls and its decision to exclude certain falls around the state. However, I agree with this one not making the final edit. Mostly because from what I can tell, it’s a fake falls. It’s merely a dam … [Read more...]

Pixie Falls

February 8, 2017 by Steve 3 Comments

A Dusting of Snow that Stix Pixie Falls, Ashford February 2016 The only thing weaker than these falls is the tortured title of this page. But you’re used to both by now. Connecticut waterfalls are often weak and my titles? Oof. The waterfall is not only named in the CFPA Walk Book, but someone cleared a … [Read more...]

Whatchoo Talkin' 'Bout Wyllys? Wyllys Falls, Manchester November 2016 Wyllys Falls is also known as Bridal Veil Falls, even though I've never seen anyone call it that except in sentences like this one.

Center Springs Falls

December 16, 2016 by Steve Leave a Comment

Hope Springs Eternal Center Springs Falls, Manchester November 26, 2016 Falls Fact: 10-foot high cascade from a culvert I know you're eyeing these pictures warily and wondering if I've lost my mind.
