Waterfall

Waterfall is a short, out-and-back cross-country ski route in Minnesota, about 0.4 miles from the town of Canisteo. The trail is only about a quarter mile long, with a total climb of 72 feet, and it is rated hard. The high point is 1,359 feet, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.07 miles, with a 7% grade. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 19°F with lows near -1°F, while March runs about 39°F by day and 15°F at night. The station sits at nearly the same elevation as the trail, so those figures are a fair guide to conditions on the snow. Several other cross-country ski routes lie within about a tenth of a mile, including Camel Hump, Triple Twister and Mole Hill. For an overnight stay, Pokegama Dam Campground is about 7 miles away.
