The Deer Leap Falls

Background

This waterfall area has been a favored spot for sport fishermen and travelers since the 1890s^[3][4][5] and remains a popular destination for hikers and tourists who want to avoid the more crowded Dingmans Falls, a short hike downstream, or the commercial Bushkill Falls, a very popular tourist attraction in the Pocono Mountains area.
