Aguasabon Falls is located just west of Terrace Bay, Ontario. Left and below: fireweed and elderberries. |

Left: mouth of Aguasabon River. Below: looking downstream from the footbridge (visible in the photo above). The rocks are all Archean granitic and metamorphic rocks. |

Aguasabon Falls is reached via a short spur road a few kilometers west of
Terrace Bay, then a boardwalk to an overlook. At left is a view of the Slate
Islands, a Paleozoic impact site, from the overlook. Below: the falls drops into a narrow cleft eroded along a joint. |

 | Left: frontal views of the falls are only visible from the gorge edge. Was it really worth it to paint that graffiti on the cliff right of the falls? |
 | Full views of the falls are not easy to come by. |
 | The stream flows into a pothole before dropping over the cliff. |
