A little over an hour away from Redding is a little town called McCloud. The McCloud river runs through McCloud and has three spectacular water falls appropriately named Upper Falls, Middle Falls, and the Lower Falls. There are several campsites and day use areas along the river as well as hiking & biking trails. This a real neat area and the fishing is very good. Below are some photos that I took on a recent camping trip with the family.
