Quarry Falls
Quarry Falls is a 6.2 metre (20 feet) horsetail
ribbon waterfall. Its crest is 1 metre wide (3 feet). It is located
in the Flamborough section of Hamilton, east of Clappison's Corners
and south of the Rona store in the new power store complex.
This waterfall is featured on Joe Hollick's "Waterfalls of Hamilton-
Spring" poster.
History
Quarry Falls is located in the centre of the former quarry
that once occupied this site. It was "discovered" by
Joe Hollick and Montfield Christian (formerly of the Hamilton
Conservation Authority) when the two of them were out to do measurements
and GPS on some other waterfalls in the area in the spring of
2006.
How to get there
The best way to reach Quarry Falls is to follow the Bruce Trail
until you are behind the new power centre (east of Hwy 6), then
get off the Trail.
