Dogs off-limits at Upper Truckee Marsh

The annual seasonal dog closure at the Upper Truckee Marsh begins May 1.

It will reopen Aug. 1, at which time dogs are allowed on leash.

The purpose of the California Tahoe Conservancy closure of this South Shore area is to keep dogs out of breeding habitat for special, threatened and endangered species such as yellow headed blackbirds.

The El Dorado County sheriff’s deputies enforce the seasonal dog prohibition and CTC staff monitors for compliance.
