More than a sideshow

It’s one of those rare waterfalls that are in full view but one cannot get to because of the “no trespassing\” signs. Rarer still because the stream the waterfall is on seems to form the boundary between public and private lands. Admiring the waterfall from afar is all the visitor can do.

The waterfall is at Bashakill, a 3,000+ acre marsh designated as a Wildlife Management Area.

Fortunately, there is not a dearth of things to do at Bashakill including biking, hiking, kayaking, birdwatching (the bald eagle has been spotted there), fishing, and even hunting and trapping small mammals (with proper permit). So a waterfall, accessible or not, although usually a main draw in most attractions, would be a more than welcome, um, sideshow.
