Lower Decew Falls

Published:

Description

This was a beauty of a waterfall in St. Catherine's Ontario. My only regret here was that we were unable to make it to the upper falls. Being the only two people there it was not worth the risk getting there as it required a very steep incline climb with nothing but tree roots to hang onto 60ft high and for at least 300 hundred feet before it leveled out to even terrain. If we would have lost our footing we would been in serious trouble. The upper falls looked to be twice this this size but there were no good views at all from the top of the trail. Needless to say I was very happy that this waterfall was here.

I stumbled on your pic by accident and had to laugh...we were just there 2 days ago!! LOL Oh, and I feel your pain on the climb...at 44 and 55 we were dying once we reached back up the gorge to the trail!! We also didn't get to the base of the Upper falls but after the climb to the Lower we just were spent!! LMAO Sadly the overcast skies dissappeared once we arrived so we didn't get any decent misting shots of the falls but I did get a shot for my first attempt at HDR.
Here's one of my shots from our hike:



Planning on checking out your other falls shots...we love them too! 
;) (Wink)
 
Cheers!!
