Twin Falls is the last waterfall on East Branch Sturgeon River before it flows into the Huron Mountain Club. The lower drop is a powerful chute squeezed between two rock outcroppings with a weird, inverted-spoon-shaped rock splitting the current. A few yards upstream a small fork empties into a deep, dark pool. Both drops are surrounded by scenic old growth and moss-covered rocks.

Directions

Head west on the Northwestern Road from the Triple A for 4.8 miles to Dodge City, a tiny hunting camp consisting of a few cabins. From here go north along the logging roads, either driving or walking along the dirt track, for 3.25 mile before cutting right down a steep, overgrown four-wheeler path to the river. Follow the tied yellow markers to the river and falls.

  • Mark Piotrowski Nov 10, '24 I highly suggest reading my comments regarding Dodge City falls for anybody attempting to visit hogback aka twin falls. Jacob's instructions here would take you across private property that is very heavily defended, shall we say. It is also possible to reach these falls by taking blind 35 to near its end and hiking in basically South then back North and finally to the West ending with a bushwack. If you are hitting the other two falls in this area it's probably not worth it, better to come in from the small access point on Northwestern road.Add to this discussion
