Gallery: Chasing waterfalls in Silver Creek Conservation Area

Silver Creek Conservation Area is, to put it lightly, massive. The sprawling 1,086 acres of land boasts a trove of environmental riches. Dense old growth forests, babbling brooks and a lifetime’s worth of wildlife create a rare biodiversity found in few other places.
