Please note:  This is now the second edition of this book.  Whereas the original document provided directions from location to location, this one has directions stated in more general terms.  For those locations which are relatively close together, we have also provided a step by step guide from the previous entry.  Also, since the 2017 document was published, a number of changes have been made at some of these sites.  Some properties have changed ownership and a number of these falls have been added to the GNIS data base, meaning they are now officially named.  Those changes are reflected in this book. Finally, we have become aware of a different printing process which has allowed us to publish this document at a lower cost compared to the original.  We have been able to lower the price by almost $4.00 without losing document quality.

The Mohawk River is one of the longest rivers completely contained within New York State.  A major portion of it runs east-west through the center of the state.  This waterway, along with the Erie Canal, Oneida Lake, Oneida River and the Oswego River, form a water boundary defining the southern portion of the region we call Northern New York. This book will guide you through 50 waterfall locations in seven counties, all or part of which are immediately north of these waterways.  All falls described are within 1/2 mile of a highway and many offer roadside views.  This is not intended to be a collection of magnificently tall descents or of the most popular falls in the area.  It is simply a list of pretty locations that are easy to get to. Roadside Falls of Northern New York Volume 3, The Mohawk Valley has been arranged so that the reader can "tour" these falls somewhat sequentially.  We start in Oswego County and proceed east through Oneida, Herkimer, Montgomery, Schenectady, Saratoga and Washington Counties.  Each waterfall is presented on a two-page spread with a full-page color photograph and descriptive text that includes driving directions, information and history of the falls and the area and access information. Sidebars feature handy at-a-glance information, such as the location, walk time, trail type, GPS coordinates and the size and type of waterfall. This is the third and final volume featuring "Roadside Falls" in the north country.
