This vessel was brought around Cape Horn to the Pacific coast by Captain Frank Worth in 1880.

In 1896 this vessel was in service on the San Francisco - Puget Sound route.

In 1884 this vessel went ashore at Race Rocks.

In 1883 this vessel was wrecked at Cape Flattery WA USA. This vessel went aground and her master abandoned ship. Captain Frank Worth, who was an officer in the vessel remained nearby for two days on a raft with two crew members. The Alta California slid off the rocks and remained afloat. Worth and his two companions boarded the ship and began sailing her to the columbia River.

They picked up some cod fishermen and contracted with them to help sail the vessel. The British collier Wellington took her in tow to Esquimalt BC Canada. The master of the Wellington refused to beach the Umatilla and this vessel sank in deep water. On September 29, 1896 this vessel left Victoria BC and when near Point Wilson WA this vessel ran onto a reef known as Libby Rock. The vessel was beached and the passengers were put ashore.

In 1907 an advertisment in The British Colonist newspaper promoted excursion in her to southeast Alaska and San Francisco. On March 07. 1918 this vessel ran aground North of Inuboyesaki and was wrecked.
