TOUR HIGHLIGHTS: Rivers * Streams * Cascades * Waterfalls

TOUR DESCRIPTION:

This tour is typically ideal in the "spring" (Vermont spring that is, which is a bit later than spring in other places), when the streams and falls are raging with water. This year, however, with all the rain we received all summer, it will be great all the way into our fall. Depending on where people are located, and depending on the state of rivers, streams, cascades,  and waterfalls, we will visit places like Huntington Gorge, Bolton Potholes, Honey Hollow Falls, and some other Vermont watering holes on the Western slopes of the Green Mountains in Northern Vermont.
