Rocky Ford Falls

Waterfall Info: This long, sliding waterfall is the main waterfall on Rocky Ford Creek, a tributary of Wildcat Creek. A small cascading drop is located upstream from the primary drop. The waterfall is steeper and more magnificent than it appears in photos, but the slant and a bend in the middle makes it difficult to photograph. 
Landowner: Dawson Forest Wildlife Management Area (Wildcat Tract) 
Height: 70 Feet
Type: Long Slide & Cascades (Multi-Tier)
County: Dawson
Access Info: Follow the Turner Trail from Wildcat Campground to the Rocky Ford Trail junction. Turn left on Rocky Ford Trail and go up a steep hill. Just before the Windy Ridge Trail junction, and just before the trail crosses Rocky Ford Creek, an unmarked side path to Rocky Ford Falls goes acutely right along an old roadbed. To reach the base of the falls, you'll need to scramble down a steep and trailless slope.
Waterfall Location: 34.500333, -84.300417​
