Feather Falls

Feather Falls

Feather Falls is a waterfall located on a modest tributary of the Middle Fork Feather River, in Plumas National Forest in Butte County, California. At 640 feet, it is the sixth highest waterfall in the United States. It is visible from the middle arm of Lake Oroville. There are two trails maintained by the United States Forest Service leading up to it. The nearby town of Feather Falls, California takes its name from the falls.
