There is no way I could possibly describe this without a photo. I saw this scene yesterday when I was coming back from my PaD shoot on the pond. You are looking at an old mill house, built on the side of a ravine that drops about 40' to the river below (which drains into the pond I was at). In the foreground is a small piece of the falls that plunge downward. I am standing across the river on a bridge beside another mill building. Those ladders you see are resting on a ledge with a couple of feet to spare. From this angle it looks like you'd continue to plunge into the gorge below once you reached the bottom rung. There has to be a Discovery Channel film crew floating around here (no pun intended) covering either the "World's most dangerous jobs", the "Future Darwin Awards", possibly both.
