Flying over/around Niagara Falls

Any local Niagara Falls pilots I could PM with for info. Probably going to be leaving Cessna/Husky at home (RV camper trip) and looking for a local pilot/owner that I can buy gas, trade Colo flying or whatever for a ride in mid September.
Thanks

Re: Flying over/around Niagara Falls

Jack,

I can't help you out on the Niagara Falls flying part, but if you have never been there get on both side of the river if possible and take a hike down into the gorge. There are some fun touristy things to do. Our favorites were going into the water discharge from the old generating station upstream of the falls which empties out near the base of the falls (The old generators are still in the building) and the Maid of the Mist. The Bridal veil falls are pretty cool too. If you keep coming East heading towards the Adirondacks, definitely get in touch. We can go for a spin around here.

Thanks Pete, I'll check my handy dandy google map to see where route crosses. Having owned two Champs, always eager to talk Champs.
