This small chute is found in the southern tip of Algonquin Park. It is found about 1 km up stream from Branch Lake, on the York River. To my knowledge, there is no hiking trail to this location. It would only be reachable by paddling, and is not a single day trip. I haven't even seen a photo of this falls. If you can provide any information to update this page, I would be grateful.
The online map at mapsbyjeff.com refers to this as a 'medium waterfall'. My bet is that this would rank as 'small' for the Waterfalls of Ontario project, but is probably a decent obstacle for paddling.
