RECREATION UPDATES

>Klondike Lake Opens for Boating Starting June 30

Precautions are still being taken to guard against invasive mussels at this site, so all motorized watercraft will be inspected before being launched. Recreational users with smaller, non-motorized watercraft that are not transported with a trailer can access the lake at any time.

We will post to ladwpeasternsierra.com and distribute further information next week on the gate entrance times, hours of operation, and seasonal fees.
