A beautiful spot. It took me 3 different tries to find this place by car several years ago. I doubt one could get anywhere near there by car right now. Thanks for sharing, Jeff……….
Started visiting the area nearly sixty years ago to flyfish for salmon. The flume to the right was not in existence at that time … We could get out on the rocks at center of the falls to fish. They blasted the ledge to run the pulp which was dumped into the river from the opening seen just above the falls. We sometimes stayed in the Payson House, a river drive lodging facility located a couple hundred yards upstream from these pics. Thanks for the memories!
Been there many times, but not this time of year! Thank you for the photos, they are breathtaking!
Very nice!
Very nice images.
great pictures, Jeff! Thanks!
GREAT photos as usual, cousin!! WOW, looks ccccold!!!
i think if you check its grandfalls. spent a good many memorial weekends there.
Great pics! I’ve visited there by car and by canoe , but not in winter. And it’s Grand Falls , not great falls.
yup its grand falls. great fishing from their on down!!!!! hard to get to tho
hey jeff when are you taking me up their fly fishing????
Our readers are quite correct, it’s the GRAND Falls, not the Great Falls. The error was entirely admin’s.
Gorgeous shots Jeff, I was there in September-sure looks alot colder now. BRRRR! Thanks for sharing!
Spent many hours here fishing with Dad and Grampa. First time to have seen it in the winter. Hope to get back there again someday.
Nice Photo. Most of our rivers are all frozen over up here, I really enjoy the photo’s of Maine.
It (the falls) hasn’t changed much in the last 50+ years, but it is no longer – in the woods. Today one can drive to within a short distance of it by a plain automobile, stay in a fancy lodging, and cross the river by a bridge.
Years ago one would hope that one of the two camps either side of the river above the falls were occupied so one could be asked if they would like a cup of hot coffee when you paddled up to or walked/snowshoe into their yard. In years past, once deer season was over the only travelers through there were a few trappers and loggers. Now a trail allows skiers and others to pass through. I will admit that it is nice that people other than woodsmen may enjoy the beauty of it all – but alas, it has been changed forever.
