Coverage details

Covers SR-89 from Truckee and SR-267 / SR-28 via Kings Beach — some nearby roads aren't monitored. See what's included.

This status covers two known Tahoe City access paths: SR-89 from the Placer / Nevada county line south of Truckee to the SR-28 junction in Tahoe City, and SR-267 from the I-80 junction in Truckee over Brockway Summit to the SR-28 junction in Kings Beach, then SR-28 to Tahoe City.

I-80 to Truckee is covered on the Truckee and I-80 pages. The west-shore SR-89 span south of Tahoe City through Sunnyside, Homewood, and Tahoma toward Emerald Bay is Phase 2 and isn't covered. Tahoe City's SR-28 verdict begins at Kings Beach; route-level SR-28 reporting continues east to the Nevada state line. NV-28 and Mount Rose Highway beyond California aren't monitored and must be verified separately.

Conditions can change quickly in the mountains. This page never replaces chain requirements, closures, or official Caltrans guidance. This boundary supports no claim about the west-shore span south of Tahoe City, Emerald Bay, NV-28, Mount Rose Highway, or roads beyond the modeled approaches. Neither surface makes a safe-to-drive or all-clear claim.
