things do change
I am an avid waterfall hunter. I found this guide to be extremely helpful, and ulike most others, the directions were pretty good. I've been trying to reach Russell Dunn, so I hope that maybe he logs in here to see what people think. There was a waterfall written about on page 116 of this book, called Hull's Falls. This is very important because it doesn't exist anymore. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. My family and I visited the falls recently, and I'm sure we had the right place. The bridge was there, the boulders were there, but the rocks had fallen into disarray and the waterfall therefore no longer exists. I think that it may have something to do with the earthquake that happened in Plattsburgh a few years ago. It may have loosened things so that when it flooded it created an incident. The bridge has also been closed, because it's unsafe. If there is a reprint of the book, that may be something that should be updated. But the book as a whole is an excellent source of information for waterfall hunters in that area.
