Cedar Creek Falls is a small waterfall of about 15 feet on Cedar Creek in Shasta County, California, near the community of Montgomery Creek just off Highway 299.
The falls
The fall is recorded under an unofficial name on the Montgomery Creek topographic quadrangle and remains unconfirmed: likely to exist, but with its size and exact attributes not yet determined on the ground. A field visit in April 2006 described it as a minor fall worth a quick look when passing by rather than a major destination. The fall sits at about 1,806 feet above sea level, where Cedar Creek runs through the Klamath Mountains region, a country of steep ridges, deep canyons and mixed conifer and hardwood forest.
