Geronimo! We went to the Lower McCloud Falls and jumped off the rocks into 40° water below! I'm very proud of my boys for overcoming their fears and trying something new! We all made the jump, emerged from the river, and climbed the cliff up and out, then returned home safe and sound. #adventure #simplyadventure #lifeofadventure #outdoors #earnyourview #discoverearth #mountain #mountains #mountshasta #siskiyou #siskiyoucounty #mccloudfalls #california #waterfall #getoutside #optoutside #nature #cliffjumping #swimming (at McCloud Falls) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzGBXHWgmCe/?igshid=1r9hh07w0qki0

Coda - c.2021 by Sage Turk 🚿 (If you find falling water, chances are you’ve found a once sacred site. The place of prayer now known as McCloud Falls was considered a holy song that the River sang to the mountain beyond. As things change and the sky itself dries up, the song now sounds like a coda.) #mccloudfalls #waterfallsaremagic #mysticquest #shastatrip2021 #artaday https://www.instagram.com/p/CSOEfE1roGE/?utm_medium=tumblr

McCloud Falls - 09/17/17

Are you afraid of heights? Well that’s okay! You can live vicariously through me. McCloud Falls was a place I have been wanting to go to for some time. I have never had the privilege of checking this sweet spot out but have heard stories and seen pictures from friends. I wanted a piece of the adventure.

I got a group of 6, including myself, and we headed north from Redding, California. We took the I-5 to the CA-89 split towards McCloud and then took a right onto Fowler Public Camp Rd. Now McCloud Falls is a three tier set of high, middle, and lower falls in which all three sections are accessible by driving or walking to them. We took the easy way and drove to each section. The middle water fall is the main show and so we decided to go check it out first.

A sign leading to the middle fall took us outside a little camp ground where we parked on the side of the road and walked about a quarter mile rest of the way. The path took us to an area piled with boulders that we had to climb over to get to the water front where there was a nice little swimming hole at the bottom of the middle waterfall. This spot offered a pretty view where adventurers can go hangout, cliff jump, fish, or swim in the water. Heads up though, the water was pretty dang cold!

My buddy, Caleb, was the first to jump in from a 30 foot cliff just underneath the top of the waterfall on the left side. Watching him go in, I knew I had to jump in as well. I had it set in my mind that I would jump in only once and so I wanted to go big. I sent it from the 60 foot kicker. As I began walking up to the top, adrenaline immediately hit me. My heart was pounding, my legs were shaking, and my vision almost seemed to narrow. I got to the top and stared down at the surface for a few minutes contemplating whether or not I still wanted to go through with it. The crowd of people at the bottom began cheering me on and I knew there was no backing out of it at that point. I was stuck with one choice. I had to conquer my enemy. I tossed a couple rocks down to make sure I had good guidance on where I wanted to land, and then pumped myself up and said a quick prayer. 

I took a leap of faith and then the “oh sh*t” factor hit me. I watched the earth being swept up towards me as my stomach lurched into my throat. My arms were waving rampantly as I was trying so desperately to maintain my balance. I took a quick glance at the GoPro in my right hand and then looked back down and hit the water with my arms still out. The rush of freezing, cold water that engulfed my body as I crashed into the great abyss was neutralized by the adrenaline filling every inch of my body. I soon resurfaced and swam to shore, slowly beginning to feel the effects from the way I landed. My rear end and underneath my arms were bruised from not tucking in when I hit, but I made it out alive and unharmed. I was soon congratulated with high-fives and remarks from those who were watching. It was a wild adventure that I am stoked to say I accomplished.

After chilling at the middle falls, we walked back to the car and followed the signs to the top falls. When we arrived, we came across a friendly, little critter who wanted a snack from us. Probably not LNT (Leave No Trace), but we had fun luring the cute little guy in. 

After making nice with God’s little creatures, we spent some time watching the water crash down as we had a pleasant little picnic and marveled at the view.

Last stop was the lower waterfall where tourists were passing through and campers were casting their lines in hopes of getting the perfect catch. All in all, McCloud Falls was a beautiful hangout area that had much to offer!
