Wildland fire training in Truckee on Tuesday

Don’t worry when an army of fire vehicles descends upon Truckee on Tuesday.

Truckee Fire, U.S. Forest Service, Calfire and the town of Truckee are hosting a multi agency wildland drill June 7 from 8am-3pm.

Fire agencies will be training on a multi-faceted scenario that includes wildland fires, wildland urban interface areas, police tactics on road closures, along with community officials helping to manage a theoretical wildland incident in the area.

Expect to see fire agencies from all around the greater Lake Tahoe area, Reno and Sacramento. Expect delays in the areas of Tahoe Donner that exit on to Alder Creek Road near the lower Wolfgang area along with areas by the ski hill Slalom-Snowpeak Road, which will be used as a staging spot.
