Unfortunately, once in a while we have to share with our community some not so pleasant news. Last week, we had a report of vehicle break-ins at the Highway 50 and Tahoe Golf Club access to the Clear Creek trail. Just a reminder not to leave any valuables in your vehicle. Also, if you are at the trailhead and see anything suspicious please consider contacting the local sheriff. If you have any information on the Hwy 50 break-in, please report it to Carson City Sheriff's Office (775)-283-7852. Most of the other Carson Valley trailheads are patrolled by Douglas County Sheriffs Office.
