Icy Spring Waters Of Great Gully Creek In FingerLakes NYS Royalty-Free Stock Photo

This is a big gully with a good sized stream. The watershed is about 25 square miles. Above the lower falls, there are short stretches of trail through beautiful mixed hardwood and hemlock, but much of this walk is in the creek bed. The limestone bed is smooth but heavily eroded with small cracks and holes. It can be rough going in spots and can also be extremely slippery. In high water, this would probably be a difficult hike.The Lower Falls is about 7 feet high and 40 feet wide with a large plunge pool that attracts swimmers on hot summer days.
