Prospect Gorge
The entire Prospect Gorge is inaccessible now. It is privately owned by Brookfield Asset Management, who administer power generation, and they are concerned because they let out water from the dams at odd intervals. Swiftly rising water with no escape is extremely dangerous. At least until the late 1970s restrictions were not as strictly enforced as they are today. Also the water releases in the past were more predictable. The property was previously owned by the Niagara Mohawk Power Co.

Famous quotes containing the word prospect:
“The treatment of the incident of the assault upon the sailors of the Baltimore is so conciliatory and friendly that I am of the opinion that there is a good prospect that the differences growing out of that serious affair can now be adjusted upon terms satisfactory to this Government by the usual methods and without special powers from Congress.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
