  • Before It Was a Park
    BEFORE IT WAS A PARK Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park and its Foundations in Comstock History Nevada Division of State Parks In honor of Nevada’s 150th anniversary 1864 to 2014 By Jay Howard, LTNSP 2014, revised 2017 A State Made by Mining Ron James wrote in his Comstock history novel The Roar and the Silence, “It was the longest telegraph ever sent, but Nevadan’s did not intend to do things in a small way. With the paperwork in order, Lincoln signed Nevada into statehood on October 31st 1864, just a few days before the November presidential election. Nevada sent back a thank-you in the form of three electoral votes for the president’s reelection.” Nevadan’s were proud of their pro-Union stance during the Civil War. Needed by the United States both politically and economically, the state of Nevada was said to have been ‘Battle Born’. Though we understand this to refer to the battles that had been raging in the east since 1861, Nevada was itself a relatively peaceful territory, other than the occasional skirmishes with Native Americans, and the more serious Pyramid Lake War of 1860. Nevadan’s never saw any fighting with Confederate forces, but certainly had their share of fistfights between Unionists and Copperheads. The latter usually losing the argument. During one incident, the Stars and Bars of the Confederacy was raised over a building in Virginia City, which led to a serious altercation between townspeople. Newspapers later reported that Unionists emerged bloody, but victorious. Early in the Civil War there was some concern that Nevada could be taken by the Confederacy, but these fears were never realized.

Please see below for area closures and operational modifications. Elevated Fire Restrictions are in effect in all areas of the Tahoe Basin ● Elevated Fire Season Restrictions prohibit the burning of wood and charcoal on public or private property including residential properties, vacation/short-term rentals, campgrounds, resorts and other recreational areas throughout the Lake Tahoe/Truckee Region until the end of November or until rescinded, including all at California State Parks and USFS sites across the Tahoe Basin. ● Watch for and heed Red Flag fire warnings. When a Red Flag is in effect, all sources of outdoor open flame, including gas/propane/pellet grills and smokers on all private and public lands are banned throughout the Lake Tahoe/Truckee Region. ● Additionally, on all USFS lands all ignition sources are prohibited, including anything with a flame, until further notice. These orders are in place to protect everyone during the current state of wildfire activity and limited fire response resources and will remain in place until further notice.

This is a land of unspeakable natural beauty, crisscrossed by A clear purpose natural streams, punctuated by towering Jeffrey pines and Our vision is a community that shares a passion for preservation. in every direction, 50-mile views of the Sierra and verdant It’s easy to envision a future here – for you, your children and theirs, valleys.
