This is a long series of small rapids and cascades, low but photogenic. The rocks are a deep rusty red in colour, which could make for good photographs, even though the falls is perhaps no more than a metre or two high.
I'm not entirely sure how to access it, because it is found behind a row of houses on Chercover Drive. The Thunder Bay Expressway is close by, but is a four-lane highway and includes 'No Parking' signs in this area. The air photo shows lots of dirt trails in the area.
This waterfall is coded yellow because I do not have information about the access point. Manouvering around the area may not be difficult, but I cannot find a starting point. I also do not have information about land ownership. It may be privately owned, although I know that there are trails through the area.
Do you live in this part of Thunder Bay? Do you know anything about this area?
