Day Use Areas in Dog Valley and Peavine Areas #ORMS-2926
The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest’s Carson Ranger District seeks public comment for 30 days on a proposal to convert a few areas in and around the Peavine and Dog Valley areas, northwest of Reno, Nevada, to day use only. Due to resource damage as well as public health and safety concerns, these designated areas would be closed from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily. In addition, disperse camping and campfires would be prohibited. The District is recommending a half-mile radius from the areas listed below be designated as day use only.
• Dog Valley Road (Forest Service Road 31002): Forest Boundary (Near Verdi, NV) and Forest Boundary (Near Bordertown Casino & RV in North Reno, NV)
• Dog Valley Summit One Staging Area (Off of Forest Service Road 31002 near Forest Service Roads 31027 and 31074.)
• East Keystone Trailhead
• Hoge Road Trailhead
• Horizon Hills Trailhead
• Las Brisas Trailhead
• Peavine Road (Off of N. Virginia St.): Forest Boundary (North Reno, NV)
• Raleigh Heights Trailhead
• Red Metal Trailhead
