Creamery Falls

On my way to the Blenheim Covered Bridge I stopped and revisited the spot where I have taken one of my favorite Catskill Region waterfall photo. The waterfall is Creamery Falls and it is located in Blenheim, New York. The water-flow of Creamery Falls and it’s creek at this time is far less than on previous trip last summer in 2006. On this trip to Creamery Falls I climbed the first tier and found a natural-like amphitheater at the top tier of the Creamery Falls.

Warning: The Catskills can be a deadly place. Only follow marked trails by New York State or the DEC. Wear proper shoes.
