An incredibly popular trail in the Finger Lakes region of NY, this mostly easy trek gets very crowded, especially the overhead Rainbow Falls. Apparently home to 19 waterfalls, part of the gorge trail is under construction which I believe reduced the amount seen. Fun, but I preferred others in area.

A thin, snaking waterfall cuts into the canyon along Glen Creek. Unsure of name, possibly still one of the 'cathedral falls.'

A deep pool can be seen from this large, flat area of the trail past the falls.

What I believe to be Dryad's Saddle growing on a fallen log. Taken in the upper area of the Finger Lakes section.

Wow I knew the circuit wasn’t up to FIA Grade 1, but it’s really let itself go since Formula 1 stopped racing there.

(Seriously though this looks beautiful.)

It’s still a very fun track to drive. Turn two down the falls into the pool is some pucker factor.
