Wequiock Falls - Scott, Wisconsin - Whimsical Wisconsin

This little county park is at the junction of Bay Settlement Road and Van Laanen Road (often misspelled Van Lanen.) This waterfall is part of the Niagara Escarpment rock formation.

Being July, the flow was very low, but apparently, in the right season, it's quite magnificent. Check out this waterfalling page for some amazing pictures! (Seeing these, we'll definitely have to visit this one again!)

Here is my video of Wequiock Falls.

Here's a really nice tour of the park from Adventuring in America on YouTube on a much higher flow day.

And here's something to NOT try at home... from Matt Thompson. I suspect this kind of flow is the only way to tackle such a waterfall with a kayak, but I still think they're a bit nuts to even try it... (It's sort of fun to watch though.)

Photos taken by myself in July 2022 with my Nikon D7200. My video was with the Kodak AZ401. The other video rights (and view counts) remain with the videographers.

A spectacular waterfall, this is an extremely unique one, and yeah, those guys that go over falls are nuts hahahahahahahaha!!! So, the video was taken with the Kodak, totally awesome!

It's definitely a nearly-hidden gem.
Those kayakers are crazy for sure!
The Kodak is doing okay as long as the zoom isn't used too much - it seems to dilute the resolution too much at that point.
Thanks for visiting!

Thank you for sharing!
