Located just west of Dougherty Gap on Lookout Mountain, Hogjowl Gulf (also marked as Sandy Hollow on topographic maps) is home to numerous waterfalls that are significant in wet periods. While the lower portions of the gulf are part of Crockford-Pigeon Mountain WMA, every waterfall is located on private property upstream of the WMA boundary. 30-foot Upper Hogjowl Falls lies within the west branch of the gulf, upstream of Hogjowl Twin Falls. 


To learn about more waterfalls in northwest Georgia, see chapter 1 in Mark Ozboyd's "Waterfalls of Georgia" guidebook.
