Middle Falls at Letchworth State Park, New York

New York State isn’t all skyscrapers and teeming crowds. The Empire State is home to a diverse geography, including some wild places that were around back on July 26, 1788, when New York officially joined the Union. In honour of New York’s statehood day, we’re at Letchworth State Park, a wilderness near Rochester that follows the Genesee River some 27 kilometres through a deep gorge that’s known as the ‘Grand Canyon of the East.’
