Class II Middle Fork Feather River, CA

The Middle Fork of the Feather River runs from it headwaters near Beckwourth, California, to Lake Oroville. The river gradient varies from gentle at the upper end to very steep in the deep canyons of the lower reaches.

The adjacent lands range from the most primitive imaginable to manicured golf courses and residential area. Access is good by oiled roads in the upper portion and is nonexistent mile after mile in the wild river zones.

The river is prized by expert kayakers and rafters as providing one of the most remote and demanding whitewater adventures in the state. The Pacific Crest Trail crosses the river and other steep backcountry trails provide access for adventurous anglers, hunters, and hikers.
