angora lake is a good place.. it's kind of hard to find though. they have like a 20, 40, and 50-60ft cliff. its by emerald bay kind of.

to get to angora lakes, take fallen leaf lake road, just past emerald bay on the right (if coming from the north. stay left and then look for a dirt road on the right. follow that road all the way until you hit a parking lot. then hike the trail all the way to the end. it is sick.

Emerald pools is on the Yuba river off the Nevada City / Grass Valley exit on I-80.

To the kid that went there, did you slide off the waterfall? That shit is scarey

Ive done a 95 footer, we measured it with ropes. Just gotta wear shoes though and keep them arms in.

Thats a nice picture. I saw some big fat guy do 2 1/2 frontflips off that one, it tore his shorts apart. Another fun cliff is the one right in the middle of the pic, jumping right over the waterfall towards the camera.

I have taken someone to the E-room after jumping off 30 feet... you can f yourself up even from small stuff but you can drop big stuff too... I always drop a rope to find out how tall it is before I talk about it... so far 77 is my biggest drop... but hopefuly I find something bigger this weekend
