Getting there
Clarks Falls is a 10-foot cascade on the Lamoille River in Milton, immediately below the Lake Arrowhead (Clark Falls) Dam that feeds the Green Mountain Power hydro station at 4 Ice House Road. There are two small roadside pull-offs along Route 104 just upstream of the dam. New England Waterfalls calls the site 'not attractive' -- much of the river's volume is diverted to the adjacent hydroelectric intake, so the cascade only runs strongly during spill events. Treat this as a roadside hydro-facility stop, not a destination waterfall; swimming here is neither recommended nor safe.
