California Waterfalls and Dams

This collection highlights California’s diverse water features, ranging from the world-renowned 2,425-foot Yosemite Falls to historic engineering projects like the 18th-century Old Mission Dam. It includes rare tidefalls like McWay Falls, which drops directly onto the Big Sur coast, and the multi-tiered cascades of the McCloud River. Significant infrastructure is also featured, such as the O’Shaughnessy Dam, which creates the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, and various Sierra Nevada structures essential to the state's hydroelectric history.
