Book Description
The Fifty Falls Challenge was created to help draw visitors away from the High Peaks Region to areas less-visited. While there are numerous waterfalls in the High Peaks Region, many are hard to get to. By good fortune, the majority of the more easily accessible waterfalls and cascades fall outside of the High Peaks. By creating the Fifty Falls Challenge, the hope is that it will help ease some of the strain of overcrowding in the High Peaks; that it will allow hikers to discover other fun and exciting areas of the Adirondacks; and that participants, taking on the challenge, will visit local businesses and help out those economies.

Features more than 100 scenic waterfall destinations throughout New York State. New York State is home to arguably the most famous waterfall in the world, Niagara Falls. But thanks to its diverse terrain and an abundance of rivers and streams, the state also boasts more than 2,000 other waterfalls. From delicate cascades to thundering cataracts, each has its own compelling story. Waterfalls of New York State is a celebration of more than 100 of the Empire State's most beautiful and interesting falls, presented by three long-time waterfall enthusiasts who know their subject matter firsthand: Edward Smathers tackles the Capital and Hudson Valley regions; Scott Ensminger reports on the Finger Lakes and Greater Niagara; and David Schryver covers the North Country. Each waterfall is presented on a two-page spread with a full-page color photograph and descriptive text that includes details about the geology of the falls, local history, driving directions, access information, suggestions for the best vantage point for viewing, as well as other area interests. Sidebars feature handy at-a-glance information, such as the nearest settlement, walk time, trail conditions, GPS coordinates and the size and type of waterfall. Filled with gorgeous photographs and featuring regional location maps, Waterfalls of New York State is a valuable regional travel guide for weekend explorers, fans of waterfalls, visitors and armchair travelers. Canadian travelers from Quebec and Ontario will appreciate the many day trips available just over the border.

156 pages B&W. While I enjoyed learning history, and appreciated authors' opinions of places, I always thought it would be nice to only have just what I needed to get to where I wanted to go so I could maximize my adventures. I also thought about having to decipher directions that had only one starting point. Therefore, using my years of hiking adventures and waterfall visits, I created an easy-to-use, no frills guide with scannable QR codes to get directions and navigation from Google Maps. I cut through the clutter to bring you a "no-frills", straight to the point guide that gives you only the information you need to get you there. This guide was created for those who are interested in the easier waterfall hikes, including roadside, and for those who would also like to explore other areas of the over six-million-acre Adirondack Park. This compilation of easy to moderate hikes, suitable for average hikers, that will lead to notable, as well as underappreciated, Adirondack waterfalls.
