Holley Falls - Dawson Forest - Dawsonville, Georgia
Two part video of Holley Falls located in Dawson Forest. This is a multi-tier waterfall on Amicalola Creek and is pretty tricky to get to as there is no trail directly leading to the falls. First part of the video is at the base and it ends at the top of the falls.

PANTHER CREEK FALLS - Best Places to Hike in Georgia
Panther Creek Falls is a slightly moderate 7 mile hike to the base of the waterfalls and back to the trailhead.
Parking is limited and will run you $4 unless you have an annual America the Beautiful Pass. There is parking along the Main Street, but there is also a limited number of places so get there as early as possible.
Along the trail are multiple areas to camp along the creek with some beautiful scenery in the background.

Cochran Creek Falls | North Georgia
Cochran Creek Falls is located in the North Georgia Mountains. A couple miles east of Amicalola Falls. I recommend downloading the US Forest Service App CONF Trails it contains a very detailed map of the Chattahoochee National Forest. I used it to track my position as I hiked the trail. This waterfall is remote and very difficult to get too. This is not a Sunday Funday hike that you can complete with your mom..
Cochran Falls is the second tallest waterfall in Georgia with 600' of vertical drop. The trail is treacherous near the top where the main drop is located. The hike itself is around 2 miles from the first creek crossing. The trail head is unmarked and I had to use the app multiple times to make sure I was in the right location.
You will have to cross multiple creeks; the depth of the creeks vary from a couple of inches to 1.5' Near the bottom of the falls and the Pine Forest offers great camping spots; very flat and very little brush.
I rate the top of the climb a black diamond because you will have to use hand holds to climb portions of it, either using trees or rocks. I would advise you not to explore this portion of the trail by yourself. Climbing is one thing, descending is another beast.. You will be using the butt scoot method plenty of times while heading back down. Take your time and enjoy the adventure!
There is a trail that I did not explore that takes you to the top of the falls. Look right when you reach the rock face near the top of Cochran Falls. Please use extreme caution when climbing to the top.

Family Travel - Amicalola Falls State Park 3D Archery, Georgia, USA
Amicalola Falls State Park 3D Archery is a new activity at this state park in Georgia. Previewed by Macaroni Kid PTC:
We were lucky to be here for opening day of the 3D archery course. Due to technical issues with Mother Nature, we weren’t able to get as much footage as we would have liked. But we hope we’ve given enough to give you a taste of the program.

Cochran Falls River Climb 2012
Enjoy the climb of Cochran Creek all the way to the infamous Cochran Falls in North Georgia. This wilderness area is very DANGEROUS. Please use extreme caution when traveling in this area. Brian Cochran with Robinson and Fields take the river route to reach the base of Cochran Falls. This is an amazing water fall deep in the Chattahoochee National Forest. Access to the falls is limited and dangerous. Traveling this area is only recommended for avid outdoorsmen with expert hiking and climbing skills. DO NOT travel this area alone.
Hiking & Waterfalls at Dawson Forest WMA, Ga: Wildcat Creek Tract
The Dawson Forest Wildlife Management area is comprised of 5 different tracts of land for a total of 25,000 acres. The Georgia DNR wildlife services owns and manages 15,000 acres while the City of Atlanta owns the remaining 10,000. The different tracts include: Wildcat Creek(Tract), Goethe, Burnt Mountain, Amicalola, and City of Atlanta. The Wildcat Tract is a 4,856 acre parcel of land located just off of Monument Road in Pickens County, Georgia. At a height of 50 feet, Fall Creek Falls is the feature waterfall of the tract. Here are a few other links with information on the Wildcat Creek Tract that I found helpful in planning my adeventure:
You'll notice quite a difference in the falls from the Flickr picture compared to how it looked on the late July day that I visited. A tree has fallen over at the midpoint of the falls and there is quite a bit more undergrowth now. I think the Flickr picture is from the fall... Also, it would probably be a much easier day if you take a buddy hiking with you and have them park at the bottom of the mountain and park the other car just off of Monument road, which will allow you the luxury of only having to walk down hill to see all of the falls. Then, you could simply drive back up the mountain... I rate this hike 5 out of 5 Billygoats. Thanks so much for watching!!
Kayak Camping Carters Lake
This was our second trip to Carters Lake and this trip was just a blast. It was super relaxing and unlike a lot of the other major lakes in Georgia, Carters Lake isn't super crowded or noisy. I highly recommend taking a trip here and getting some relaxation time in for yourself.
Off-road USA - Dawson Forest Nuclear Site Expedition
Visited some of the remnants of the old nuclear airplane development site. The Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory, also known as AFP No. 67, for Air Force Plant 67 was a United States Air Force test facility located in the Dawson Forest in Dawsonville, Georgia. It was the site of Lockheed's lab for investigating the feasibility of nuclear aircraft. The site was used for irradiating military equipment, as well as the forest to determine the effect of nuclear war, and its effects on wildlife. The area was closed in 1971 and acquired by the city of Atlanta for a second airport, but its topography was determined to be ill-suited for an airport. Documents explaining what went on at the site remain highly classified, and the entrance to the underground portion of the facility has been buried. The only objects left above ground were the concrete foundations on which the buildings and reactors were placed (Wikipedia).
Amicalola Falls State Park - AT Approach and Len Foote Hike Inn Trail Loop
Music: Dare to Dream by Utopian Sounds
My good friend Nathan Hattaway and I went on a day hike in the Chattahoochee National Forest beginning at the Amicalola Falls State Park. The park is 829 acres and features the Amicalola Falls a 729 foot cascade which is the tallest in the State of Georgia. Amicalola is a Cherokee Indian word meaning tumbling waters. Another fascinating aspect of the park is that it contains the trailhead for the AT Approach Trail. This is the 8.5 mile access trail to Springer Mountain the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. Many hikers that attempt to make the journey along the AT stay overnight at the Len Foote Hike Inn. The 5.5 mile access trail to the Hike Inn begins in the park near the top of the falls.
We took the AT Approach Trail and connected with the Hike Inn Trail to make an approximately 12 to 13 mile loop depending on how many side trails one takes. Our lunch at the Hike Inn was enjoyed on the overlook near the granite base used to mark the spring and fall equinoxes. This is a wonderful loop that showcases God's creation. Check out the link below for the Amicalola State Park.
