Storm alerts
A notification on this device when chain control starts, changes or lifts, or a road closes or reopens. Pick your roads:
An alert is a heads-up that something changed, not a road report, and it can arrive a few minutes after the change. Before you drive, check Caltrans QuickMap or Nevada 511 (nvroads.com), or call 511. A few alerts a day at most; no account, no email, and you can turn them off here any time (what we keep).

What this camera shows
At 5,866 feet, this viewpoint sits right at the northern gate where winter restrictions first go into effect, sharing essentially the same elevation as the checkpoints near the highway junction and the airport two miles away. Because it sits at the threshold of the climb, watching the live video stream reveals whether snow is sticking on the valley floor or holding off until higher ground.
When the camera uphill at Northstar shows snow covering the lanes roughly 300 feet higher, this view lets drivers verify if the slush line is creeping down into town. If pavement here remains bare and wet, travel through the lower flats is usually moving freely, but slush accumulating across these lanes signals that chain screening is active right at the start of the grade.

Chain-control points on SR-267
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:
| Point | Elevation | Near | Now |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kings Beach - (Jct. 267/28 - Stewart Way) | 6,538 ft | Kings Beach | Clear |
| Northstar Rd | 6,200 ft | Truckee | Clear |
| Truckee - Jct I-80 (aka - Bypass) | 5,967 ft | Truckee | Clear |
| Truckee Airport Rd | 5,918 ft | Truckee | Clear |
| Martis Creek | 5,833 ft | Truckee | Clear |
