Side Trip - Waterfall Erb's Cove

It's great fun seeking out waterfalls, especially those hidden close to the roadside. This one is less than a 2-minute walk from the roadside. When the water flow is not too heavy, you can climb out onto the various rock formations to get really close to the action.

These pictures show a waterfall near Erb's Cove on the Bellisle River. They were taken on two different dates, one in early spring before the leaves have come out, and one later when the woods are in full spring greenery.

It's a small waterfall, with an old concrete fish ladder along one side. This is in farming country, and is undoubtedly on private property. However, there seems to be a well-worn trail, and often people are seen fishing there.

The bridge crossing the stream offers a pleasant view of the stream, but only a hint of the waterfall below.

Connecting to my Picasa albums allows you to see the pictures in a larger format slideshow, and/or to see the locations mapped by Google Maps and Google Earth.

What a coincidence; as we had visited Erb's Cove on August 1st and how surprised I was to find your post when searching for information about the magnificent fish ladder there! This is truly a beautiful spot. Also love your roadside flowers; very nice. Great photography, I shall visit your blog again.
