Teddy's Falls is found about 2 km downstream of the more accessible Fourth Falls. They are similar in size, but different in shape. Teddy's Falls spreads across the river as a single ridge, probably almost 10 m high. The river drops in a round bay in the Larder River, just below the falls. Immediately upstream of the falls is a section of rapids that is over 100 m long.
This would be a well-visited falls if it was more accessible. Unfortuantely, there is no (easy) land access. The land between the river and Hwy 624 to the west is all privately owned. I am not aware of land access from the east either. Several members of our Facebook Group are seeking further information.
At this point, the only legal access may be a paddle downstream from Fourth Falls. The distance is only 2 km, although carrying boats from the parking spot for Fourth Falls would make for a long portage. A small rapids section is found between these two falls.
If you live in the area and can help to update this information I'd be happy to hear from you.
