they are a tad smaller than the ones in the film tho. and i certainly would not want to see what was left of anyone jumping off the waterfalls.

letchworth and watkins glen are also upstate. the geneses river has sme interesting topography too.

There are a good number of recent examples that are intricately carved out of beautifully grained wood and often these carvers are modern Native Americans.
