Upper part of Kaaterskill Falls

As everyone knows, Kaaterskill Falls (except for the base) was closed to the public. Starting last weekend, it was opened to the public. Here are a couple of photos:
There is a new trail to the top of the Falls. It is lined with stone dust with water run offs. Not sure it will reduce deaths, but tourist are certainly going to like it. Hikers not so much. The bridge over Lake Creek has not been started. They are still installing the steps from the base to the top and the middle Falls. Construction and restrictions will continue into 2016. But, the top is presently open. Enjoy while no one knows about it. Next summer it will be a "zoo".
