Taughannock Falls?

[sparkin]

Is it She-Qua-Ga Falls ?

[BmanH]

Is it She-Qua-Ga Falls ?

Yes it is! http://nyfalls.com/shequaga.html

It was tough for me to answer the question about being in the Appalachian region b/c the Falls is located very close to the border of the shaded area of the map that Derek provided. However, it's definitely in this map (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:NortheastAppalachiansMap.jpg) of the Northeast Appalachian so that's why I answered yes.

Anyways. All yours Sean!

[Kendoway]

Rats - I've missed another round (almost entirely). The weekend seems so busy sometimes.
