Description
This run starts roughly from the Nevada border and ends at the western edge of Reno where you can continue on downstream on the town run. If combined with the two previous runs, packrafters can do a train shuttle on Amtrak! There is not much at all in the way of public land or even sandbars to camp on in this section. Additional Information The Truckee Meadows Water Authority publishes a river recreation map. Download the pdf from the map link to the right or you can pick one up at their offices in town.
