Eternal Flame Falls is a small cascade type waterfall at 30 feet high located near Orchard Park, NY in Chestnut Ridge Park in Western NY. Unfortunately with the small heat wave we have been having there was no water running over it, just a very small trickle. Researchers have determined that the gasses which supply the flame seep through the Rhinestreet shale from approximately 400 meters below the surface. Its not a pretty waterfall, but it is an amazing site to see especially when there is water running over it. Here are a few shots I took today. Its about a half mile hike from the parking lot to the falls if you stay on the right trail the trail markers are up high on the trees so kids don't take them down, I did not know this so I figured if I find the creek just walk that well I did just that and found myself at the top of the falls so I climbed down the falls so I guess for me it was a good thing there was no water running over it, but for me the journey is part of the photograph. hope you all enjoy them and put it on your bucket list to photograph.
