| Description: |
The following is quite humorous. So repeat after me, "Feather Falls falls on the Falls River not the Feather River." Although you can see the Feather River from Feather Falls. Choose your route (short and steep, loop, or long and flat) to see this 640 ft waterfall. This waterfall ranks as the 6th highest free-falling waterfall in the United States. It is 4th in California.
