Papermill Falls Sidekick Waterfall, Silver Lake Outlet, Letchworth State Park, New York State

Papermill Falls Sidekick

Papermill Falls is a beautiful waterfall located on the Silver Lake Outlet in Letchworth State Park in New York State. It has an upper and lower section and both have their beauty. The lower section is divided into a main part, an a side section on the left (facing the waterfall). And it is that sidekick that this photograph portrays. I really liked this perspective slightly to the side as it showed the forceful rush of water at the top entering the wider area and proceeding down the shale rock in a more graceful fashion.

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.
