There are places that would be worth visiting daily and this spot by the Great Bend on the Genesee River in Letchworth State Park is certainly one of them! Since daily is not realistic living about an hour away, I try to visit and photograph it at least annually and it is worth it every single time, whether weather cooperates or not.

This was a beautiful early summer morning, with a little bit of beautiful signature fog floating over the Genesee River as the sun peeked over the distant horizon to the east. A gentle breeze, birds chirping, and the rays of light slowly flooding the valley with more and more light and burning the fog off quickly. Breathtaking!

Letchworth State Park is about 35 miles south of Rochester, NY and 60 miles from Buffalo, NY. It is along the Genesee River and follows it for about 17 miles. The park is most known for its three major waterfalls - Lower Falls, Middle Falls, and Upper Falls. However, there are many additional waterfalls on the Genesee River tributaries that are well worth exploring, especially for those who have visited the major and most obvious points of interest.

Genesee River flows from Gold, PA into the Port of Rochester, NY on Lake Ontario. It's one of a few rivers in the United States that flows from south to north. There is an interesting debate over the true headwaters but it seems the consensus is that it is on the Hosley Farm now owned by Slaybaughs. The runner up seems to be John Torok's spring.
