Nevada Travel Alerts

If we know of long-term access issues or closures that may affect your future visit, we’ll post them here—along with links to the best resources for information and real-time updates regarding short-term situations, weather/environmental incidents, and other temporary travel impediments.

Short-Term Travel Alerts

Due to flash flooding damage caused by Hurricane Hilary in 2023:

  • Spring Mountains National Recreation Area, which includes Mt. Charleston, has now reopened most areas. In Lee Canyon (State Route 156), the Upper & Lower Bristlecone Trails/Trailheads, Lower Bristlecone Road, and Mack’s Canyon Road and dispersed camping area remain closed. In Kyle Canyon (State Route 157), the following trails/trailheads also remain closed: Cathedral Rock, Echo, Mary Jane, and Trail Canyons. On Deer Creek Road (State Route 158), Deer Creek Picnic Area remains closed as well. The latest updates will be provided through the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest’s website and Facebook page.
  • Road closures remain at Death Valley National Park, but many popular points of interest and hiking trails are accessible. Before you visit, get the latest updates and reopening projections from Death Valley National Park’s website and Facebook page.

Long-Term Travel Alerts

  • In October 2021, lake access at Cave Lake State Park temporarily closed to the public for construction to restore Cave Creek Dam. The lake was completely drained. While the campground is open, access to the lake will remain closed due to unsafe shoreline conditions and other safety concerns until the project is complete. Check here for updates.

Have you ever visited a ghost town? 

Nelson, site of the most successful gold mining boom in southern Nevada, housed Techatticup mine, famous for being one of the most lawless mining towns of its time, that even law enforcement avoided it completely. 

A spontaneous stop turned out to be one of the most exciting places we visited in Nevada. This stunner, North American T-28B Trojan/Bu, is not an actual crashed plane but stored dismantled at the mine, making this ghost town 100x cooler ✈️

I recently found myself out in the middle of nowhere Nevada.  Couldn’t resist lighting up some buses and checking out some stars.  It’s damn dark out there! 🌚 ⁣
