Everything about The Yuba River totally explained
The
Yuba River is an important
river in
California and a major
tributary of the
Feather River, which is a tributary of the
Sacramento River. The river begins as three separate forks, the north, south and middle, in the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. The north fork begins at Yuba Pass and flows into the
New Bullards Bar Reservoir, which is formed by
New Bullards Bar Dam. The middle fork begins at Jackson Meadows Reservoir, which is formed by Jackson Meadows Dam, and joins the north fork just downstream of the
New Bullards Bar Dam. A tunnel is used to divert water from the middle fork to New Bullards Bar Reservoir. The south fork begins at Lake Spaulding, which is formed by Spaulding Dam, and joins the other forks at Englebright Reservoir, which is formed by
Englebright Dam. The Yuba River meets the Feather River near
Yuba City.
The Yuba was probably named by early Spanish or Mexican scouting expeditions in the region who found wild grapes growing along the banks of the river, and dubbed it using a variant spelling of the Spanish word
uva (grape).
