Wahconah Falls - MA (Waterfall)

-Approx 150-190 Wahconah Falls Road, Dalton, Massachusetts
-visited August 2016
-1 mile each way
-easy
-porta potty bathrooms
-nearby: Pecks Falls, Tannery / Parker Falls
-notes:
     -dirt parking lot, free
     -starts as North Road (paved), then becomes Wahconah Falls Road (dirt), then Back Dalton Road (dirt) - dirt portions are in greatest quality
     -beginning of falls is a short distance in, but follow the river to find more cascades / falls
     -falls range from 5-50 feet
     -rocks can be slick, especially if climbing up the falls
     -ok in low water, would be impressive after rainfall
     -trail is easy, some rocks and roots but mainly flat, has some inclines/hills but nothing difficult
     -walking up falls can be difficult/slippery, use caution if deciding to go this route
    -trail is well shaded by trees
    -view is pretty uninterrupted
    -bugs are minimal
