Following the middle fork of the Feather River while climbing into the Sierra Nevada Mountains, SR 70 offers dramatic views of sheer-walled canyons soaring up to 1,000 feet above the river bottom. Wildflowers and waterfalls are at their height in the spring, but blazingly colorful foliage makes fall another beautiful season to drive the route.
