What this camera shows
This live video stream captures traffic flow at an elevation of 4,633 feet. Because this feed provides continuous motion, it is the most reliable way to gauge real-time congestion or sudden stoppages that static images might miss. Drivers can observe whether vehicles are maintaining speed or slowing down as they approach the higher elevations of the Sierra.
At 4,633 feet, this position sits below the chain control points at Mogul and Gold Ranch. While the pavement here may appear clear, changing conditions at those higher points often indicate that snow levels are dropping. If the cameras at Mogul or the state line show active precipitation or chain requirements while this view remains clear, it suggests a transition zone where weather conditions are worsening for westbound travelers. Checking this feed alongside those higher-elevation cameras helps determine if chain controls are likely to move further down the grade.
Chain-control points on I-80
Caltrans does not control the whole road at once — it sets controls at whichever point matches the snow level, so the same storm produces controls at different places on different days. These are the California-side points, highest first:
