Der Letchworth State Park liegt im Westen des US-Bundesstaates New York, etwa 55 km südlich der Stadt Rochester. Er erstreckt sich in Nordost-Südwestrichtung über eine Länge von etwa 24 km beidseits des Genesee River und umfasst eine Fläche von fast 60 km². Drei Wasserfälle im Süden des Parks – Upper, Middle und Lower Falls – und die bis zu 200 m hohen Steilufer haben diesem Teil des Parks den Namen Grand Canyon of the East eingetragen. Der Middle Falls hat eine Höhe von über 30 m und ist nach einer alten Seneca-Legende so wundervoll, dass selbst die Sonne jeden Mittag im Zenit stehen bleibt, um ihn zu bewundern. Etwas flussaufwärts von Ska-ga-dee, wie der Middle Falls von den Seneca genannt wird, überspannt in atemberaubender Höhe die Portage Bridge der Erie Lackawanna Eisenbahnlinie die Schlucht. Daneben gibt es im Park noch ungefähr 50 weitere kleinere Wasserfälle, darunter auch an einem kleinen Nebenfluss den Inspiration Falls, den mit 107 m Fallhöhe tiefsten Wasserfall des Bundesstaates New York. Der Park geht auf ein Grundstück um das Glen Iris Gasthaus zurück, das 1859 in der Nähe des Mittleren Falls erwarb und in den folgenden Jahren vergrößerte. 1898 eröffnete er neben dem Gasthaus ein naturkundliches Museum. 1907 übertrug er den Park dem Staate New York.Der Park, überwiegend Laubwald, ist dank seiner zahlreichen Wanderwege ein beliebtes Ausflugsziel. (de) Letchworth State Park is a 14,427-acre (5,838 ha) New York State Park located in Livingston County and Wyoming County in the western part of the State of New York. The park is roughly 17 miles (27 km) long, following the course of the Genesee River as it flows north through a deep gorge and over several large waterfalls. It is located 35 miles (56 km) southwest of Rochester and 60 miles (97 km) southeast of Buffalo, and spans portions of the Livingston County towns of Leicester, Mount Morris and Portage, as well as the Wyoming County towns of Castile and Genesee Falls. In 1859, Buffalo industrialist William Pryor Letchworth (1823–1910) began purchasing land near the Middle Falls, and started construction of his Glen Iris Estate. In 1906 he bequeathed the 1,000-acre (4 km2) estate to New York, which soon after became the core of the newly created Letchworth State Park. The park prominently features three large waterfalls – the Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls – on the Genesee River, which flows within a deep gorge that winds through the park. The rock walls of the gorge, which rise up to 550 feet (170 m) in places, prompted the area's reputation as the "Grand Canyon of the East". (en) Is páirc stáit í Páirc Stáit Letchworth atá suite in iarthar Nua-Eabhrac i Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá, 35 míle (56 km) thiar theas de chathair Rochester agus 60 míle (95 km) thoir theas de chathair Buffalo i gcontae Livingston (sna bailte darb ainm Leicester, Mount Morris agus Portage) agus i gcontae Wyoming (sna bailte Castile agus Genesee Falls). Tá an pháirc bordaithe ar 17 míle (24 km) ar fad, ag cuimsiú 14,350 acra (58 km2) de thalamh de chois na hAbhann Genesee. Laistigh den pháirc tá trí eas mhóra ar an abhainn agus b’fhéidir suas le caoga eas ar na craobh-aibhneacha a shníos isteach san abhainn mhór, maille leis an gcraosán a dheilbhigh an abhainn. Tá fálta carraige an chraosáin seo suas le 550 troigh (170 m) ar airde in áiteanna agus caolaítear iad go dtí 400 troigh (120 m) ar leithead os cionn an chinn láir de na trí eas. Is uaidh seo a thugtar an leasainm “Cainneon Mór an Oirthir” ar an gceantar. Baisteadh an pháirc as William Pryar Letchworth, an fear a thiomnaigh an t-eastát de 1,000 acra (4 km2) arb é ceartlár na páirce é do Stát Nua-Eabhrac sa bhliain 1906. Faightear bealaí isteach na páirce in aice leis na háiteanna darb ainm Mount Morris, Perry, Castile agus Portageville. Imíonn bóthar (dhá lána nó trí) nua-aimseartha, ar a gcoinnítear dea-bhail, le taobh thiar an chraosáin, a chuireas ar chumas daoine a lán radharc spéiriúil de ghnéithe geolaíocha an chraosáin a fheiceáil. Tá na trí phríomheas, a dtugtar an tEas Uachtair, an tEas Láir agus an tEas Íochtair orthu, suite i gcainneon Portage i ndeisceart na páirce, Bhaist na Meiriceánaigh dhúchasacha áitiúla, na Seinice, “She-ga-hun-da” (Gleanntán na dTrí Eas) ar an talamh timpeall an chainneoin seo agus chreidtí gur chuir an ghrian ina stad ag meán lae de thairbhe rí-éachtaí an Easa Láir (“Ska-da-dee”). Faightear an t-eas is airde i stát Nua-Eabhrac sa pháirc seo, Is eas ribíneach suntasach é a aimsítear ar chraobh-shruthán achar gearr taobh thoir d’Inspiration Point Overlook, 0.4 míle (640 m) taobh thiar d’ionad cuairteoirí na páirce. Tugtar Eas Inspioráide air agus titeann an t-uisce 350 troigh (107 m) ón mbarr. D’ainneoin na hairde mórthaibhsí, is eas séasúrach é agus is minic nach bhfeictear ach teimhleach an uisce ar éadan na haille. Tá aghaidh an easa ó dheas siar ó dheas agus níl ach troigh amháin ar leithead ag an gcírín, áit a dtosaíonn an t-uisce ag titim ó bharr an easa. Ach go coitianta, aithnítear an tEas Taughannock (suite thiar thuaidh d’Ithica, i gceantar na Méarlochanna i Nua-Eabhrac Iarláir) mar an t-eas is airde sa stát agus in Oirthuaisceart na tíre chomh maith. Is ón Tréimhse Dheavónach é an grinneall atá nochta sa chraosán, déanta as sceallaí den chuid is mó agus roinnt sraitheanna de ghaineamhchloch agus d’aolchloch freisin. Sil-leagadh an charraig i bhfarraige intíre ársa agus faightear a lán iontaisí muirí sa charraig. Is an-óg, i dtéarmaí geolaíochta, é an tírghné den chuid seo de ghleann na hAbhann Genesee. Is éard is cúis leis sin gurbh éigean don abhainn gleann nua a shnoí de bharr go ndearna an t-oighearshruth ilchríochach deireanach athchúrsáil ar an abhainn as an seanghleann. Sa bhliain 2007, ainmníodh Páirc Letchworth mar cheann de na 100 ionad campála is fearr sna Stáit Aontaithe. (ga) |
