North Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Douglas fire protection districts, the Nevada Division of Forestry and the U.S. Forest Service will continue widespread prescribed fire operations beginning the week of Dec. 7.

Operations on the North Shore may take place on the west side of Incline Village and in Carnelian Bay. On the South Shore, off South Upper Truckee Road near Meyers, off Columbine Trail and Ski Run Boulevard near South Lake Tahoe, and on Kingsbury Grade. On the East Shore, off Logan Creek Drive, south of Glenbrook, on Spooner Summit, and north of Spooner Lake.

Operations may continue over the next several weeks as weather and conditions allow.

The Tahoe Fire and Fuels Team developed an online mapping tool the public may use to view the location and details of each prescribed fire project.

Smoke from prescribed fire operations is normal and may continue for several days after an ignition depending on the project size and environmental conditions.
