Hidden Grindstone Falls
Hidden Grindstone Falls
Photo by Joe Hollick.
The total
waterfall includes a washboard cascade at the top, a vertical
drop section and then a cascade ravine below. Its crest width
is 5 feet (1 metre) and its height is 26 feet (8 metres).History
Hidden Grindstone Falls was “discovered” by David
Piano in early August 2008. What is truly unique about this discovery
is that David is an elementary school student. He is extremely
interested in Hamilton’s waterfalls and has visited and photographed
many of them. David was excused from school on Friday morning
(Oct. 3) so he could attend the Hamilton Waterfall Group meeting
at the Hamilton Conservation Authority office and outline his
newly found waterfall. (His father Dan also attended as he was
David’s chauffer).After David contacted Joe Hollick in August, Joe visited the
site and confirmed that Hidden Grindstone Falls is located on
the west side of the Grindstone Creek, just above the Grindstone
Cascade as David had indicated.Discuss
Hidden Grindstone Falls on our Forum.How to get there
David has indicated that if you start out at Great Falls, there
is a trail on the west side of the creek starting near the maintenance
building and it will take you to Hidden Grindstone Falls on the
west side.Photos of Hidden Grindstone Falls
