Ender's Falls

Man - that new dedication to doing fairly regular blog posts died faster than a new years resolution. But I'm definitely overdue for an update.

In an effort to make Connecticut seem less mundane, it seemed like a good idea to go waterfall hunting in tandem with getting a good amount of exercise in by hiking to said waterfalls. The website New England Waterfalls has a fairly convenient guide with ratings, so we're using that as a basis for our travels.

This weekend Suzi and I headed out to Enders Falls in Granby. After getting lost repeatedly due to bad advice from Google Maps, we managed to get there in about 45 minutes. Below are some photos capturing a fraction of the six large waterfalls we came across. There were swimming holes, plenty of wildlife, and amazing streams through out the trail - definitely unexpected finds.

The photos don't really do Ender's Falls justice, but I really can't recommend this area enough for a non-strenuous walk through some of the best waterfalls in Connecticut.

This weekend coming up I'll be in Vermont...so more photos then!

  2. Great area. I was there for New Years 2000, and the falls were frozen. It was incredible.
