Trail Outlook

Still hot but peeling off the near triple digits just a bit. Afternoon winds as usual with a chance of thunderstorms on Saturday midday to afternoon. Otherwise, the smoke continues to hang south of Carson and the stronger afternoon gusts out of the west should keep the Truckee Meadows and surrounding trails breathable. Carry extra water and enjoy!

If you get out, let us know what you saw by submitting a trail report.

Be kind, be safe, and enjoy.
