3/21/2015 - the first time I saw these falls I had a suspicion that the small one might not flow all the time. Today, on my way home from Glen Falls I came by this spot...and it turns out I was right. There was only a trickle of water on the bigger falls, even though we've had quite a bit of rain lately...and the small falls was dry. So I'll leave the picture up, but I took it out of my count.
I'll also leave up the photos of the falls with more water, to show how pretty they can be when there is plenty of rain.
3/27/2011 - went on a hike with the TrailDames to the Shirley Miller Wildflower Trail in the Crockford-Pigeon Mtn WMA. On they way we drove around a curve on Hwy 193 and there were two really pretty falls right there by the road. After the wildflower trail we drove to John's Mtn and hiked up the Keown Falls Trail.
GMAPS does not show either of these branches

Hwy 193
These falls are quite close to the road, at the point of a fairly sharp curve, but it's obvious a lot of people must stop here because closest to the falls there is a sizable parking area. There was actually a 3rd falls there today, but it was obvious it's a run-off falls and won't be there when the excess water from the recent rains has drained off.
