Anyone with a bit of a description of the "Medium Waterfall" (Jeff's Map) on the Amble du Fond west of Kiosk heading to Manitou?
....(I believe that there are also swifts & maybe even a small falls closer to Kiosk... heading from Kiosk towards Manitou, the "Medium" falls is marked as being at the 3rd short portage.
I'm tweaking a route for early September -- with my daughter who absolutely loves sitting in & under waterfalls.
"Medium" falls are often too big for this... but some are within the range of what can be (semi)sensibly played in.
Thanks!

I’m also a fan of sitting under falls. This was taken July 2020 at the falls you mentioned. It’s a decent sized cascade, but it drops in levels so you can find spots like this (assuming the water levels aren’t too high, but I doubt that’s an issue right now)

That looks great!
Thanks for digging that up!
__fussed with trying to dig up a photo of my daughter in her first waterfall on her first backcountry trip (she's 17 now and knock-on-wood still eager to come along). --Can't figure it out from my mobile... oh well.
There is a great little spot near Pen Lake at the first portage heading towards Welcome Lake. ...a swimming hole with two small falls - one pours over your, the other provides a spa-pool flow to try to swim against.
-Perfect for kids.
