A roughly 100-foot waterfall sits less than a mile from a tiny roadside parking area, and somehow that is only the beginning of this Massachusetts hike. The lower falls appear quickly, with rushing water following much of the climb as the trail continues past smaller cascades and toward the Appalachian Trail. I like that the payoff starts early, because you do not have to wait until the summit for the scenery to get interesting.

Jeff Tweedy w/ Case Oates at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center on October 30, 2026. The idea that one singular person could keep a sold-out venue entertained, amused, and at times spell bound all in one night with just a guitar and some well-crafted original songs is extraordinary, yet that is just what Jeff Tweedy did on Friday night, October 30, 2026 at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center at the historic Mahaiwe Theatre in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.
