Gates Mills Falls:

These falls are on Gates Mills Creek, which continues to flow meeting the Chagrin River in Gates Mills, Ohio. There was once a small bridge over the ravine, but it was demolished some years ago, presumably to help the ravine be restored to its original form. The county still maintains an easement where the bridge once stood, but there is no place to park a car. The falls can still be viewed by those willing to hike or ride a bike to the area, then climbing down a rocky and slippery escarpment. The ravine can also be viewed from above the falls by walking toward the ledge of the falls (see link below) but I would advise using the strongest of caution if doing this. The creek bottom is extremelly slippery, and going over the falls would not be a pleasant experience.
