WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
VIRTUALLY FROZEN IN TIME, THIS FORMER STAGECOACH STOP AND FABLED FISHING LAKE IS BOTH A REMINDER OF THE SIERRA NEVADA’S PAST AND A HARBINGER OF ITS ENVIRONMENTAL FUTURE
For decades the only things that escaped the gates of Webber Lake were stories and legends—whispers of rainbow trout as large as footballs, a stage stop hotel where Gold Rush miners once mingled with artists and a spectacular meadow that lit up like Fourth of July fireworks each summer. In the checkerboard of alternating public and private land that dots the wild landscape north of Truckee, the lake was a private parcel close enough to Henness Pass Road to breed stories, but tantalizingly off-limits to the general public. Then, last year, the gates to Webber Lake swung open. After more than a century of private ownership, the mystery and majesty of a serene and historic Sierra Nevada landscape was unveiled to the public. Webber Lake is both a recreation gem and a conservation prize. And it fits like an interlocking piece in a puzzle of conservation purchases the Truckee Donner Land Trust has been meticulously assembling for years. To the east, the sinuous wetlands of Perazzo Meadows have been protected and restored by the Land Trust and conservation partners. To the south, Mt. Lola rises above the Lahontan cutthroat–filled waters of Independence Lake, another Land Trust conservation purchase. A series of other important meadows and streams, including Coppins Meadow and Cold Stream Meadow, speckle the landscape between Truckee and the Sierra Valley—conserved forever as wild landscapes connected to Webber Lake. But Webber Lake stands out as a jewel even in this spectacular watershed. Norris calls it both “the grandest prize north of Truckee” and a critical piece of a “20,000-acre conservation effort spanning well over a decade” by the Land Trust and its partners.

From Hwy 89, about 17 miles north of Truckee, take Jackson Meadows Road west about 8 miles to the sign for Webber Lake. Turn left and proceed down a dirt road for about a quarter mile. At a closed gate, the road forks to the right and in about another quarter of a mile is a dirt road to the left and a sign pointing to the TDLT Lacey Meadows parking area. Follow this road for about 0.6 mile to the parking area, interpretive kiosks, and maps of the area.
