TRAIL DESCRIPTION: bushwhack down to the streambed below. The easiest approach is on the left side of the parking area, avoiding the tangle of alders. Once at the brook, pick your way upstream to the first tributary you come across on Weir Brook, where the lower falls are visible. Climb over these small six foot falls and continue upstream to Ardoise Falls about 150m along.
