Watershed Updates

We’re officially open and glad to welcome visitors back to Los Vaqueros. Thank you to CalFire and all the firefighters who saved the watershed! Although some of the South side of the watershed did burn, we did not lose any structures, and there was no damage to the reservoir.
Burn Area Closed
Even with clean up and remediation, there is an area on the South side that remains closed due to fire damage. Signs are visible around the burn area to remind visitors not to enter the area for your safety.

Partial Gravel Road
Along Los Vaqueros Road near the South side entrance, there is a partial gravel road due to recent construction.
