Overview: Volunteer Naturalist Fred Losi will guide an in-stream exploration of Deerlick Creek. Three beautiful waterfalls will be explored: Fishbowl, Bridal Veil and Quarry Falls. Wettable footwear is advisable for walking in the creek. Some trail hiking included.
We had a fun group on Saturday's adventure in Deerlick Creek. It included visits to many scenic locations in remote Bedford Reservation including Poet's Cave, Tumble Rock Glen, Fishbowl Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and the confluence with Tinker's Creek. Here are some links to photos and other interesting items of interest.
