On this blistering hot day, we ventured to Ithaca to visit Taughannock Falls. First, we waded up Taughannock Creek and used small nets to catch aquatic macroinvertebrates. We found crayfish, a dock spider, caddisfly nymphs, adult stoneflies, stonefly nymphs, minnows, snails and more. The students enjoyed catching critters with their nets. The water cooled us off too! 
Next we hiked the Gorge Trail to Taughannock Falls. We walked through ankle-high water on an old riverbed to the falls. We made it to Taughannock Falls and enjoyed the spectacular view of the gorge from the bottom. We hurried back to the state park, eager for lunch, cold drinks and swimming.
