The U.S. Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit has begun the annual closure of forest roads around the basin.

Fall closure dates are established by the motor vehicle use map. The MVUM also establishes target opening dates after the winter season. These dates are dependent on soil conditions in order to avoid resource damage and erosion potential.

Consult the MVUM by going online to find specific roads and dates.

For more information on gate closures, contact the Forest Supervisor’s office at (530) 543.2694.
