Long-Term Travel Alerts

In the summer of 2022, Death Valley National Park experienced extreme, record rainfall and flooding (read about the “DEVA Deluge” here), which resulted in multiple road closures and ongoing changes to park access. For the most current park conditions and updates, click here.

In October of 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.

Due to more than 20 years of drought, Lake Mead’s water levels are at a historic low—a situation that affects boaters, beachgoers, and other recreation seekers. Monitor current Lake Mead site and boat ramp closures, safety alerts, and water levels here.

Many South Lake Tahoe destinations remain impacted by the 2021 Caldor Fire. Visitors recreating within all wilderness and recreation areas surrounding South Lake Tahoe should remain vigilant and aware of weather conditions by checking with local authorities before heading into the backcountry, and always obtain the necessary permits related to their activity.
