About Pratt’s Falls
Pratt’s Falls is a thin and lacy 137ft high waterfall partially hidden in thick foliage.
Now while the foliage could be annoying in that we couldn’t really get a clean look at it, I can envision how the falls would really stand out in the Autumn.

That would be when Fall colors would show themselves amongst the neighboring foliage making the scene come alive.
So given our early Summer visit, we had to be content with lots of green around the falls.
Although it wasn’t obvious to me at first, there was a short path leading from the car park then descending to the base of the falls.
The views from the rim of the gorge was mostly blocked.
At the bottom of the trail, all that I was able to see of the falls is what you can see in the photo above.
According to the signage here, the falls got its name from a saw mill built by Manoah Pratt, Sr. and Abraham Smith in 1796.
A couple of years later, it operated as a flour mill.
