The U.S. Forest Service recently completed improvements on the Rainbow Trail at Taylor Creek on the South Shore to create a more sustainable alignment with the site’s wetland characteristics including a newly constructed elevated boardwalk.

As well, the Great Basin Institute and Forest Service partnered for new interpretative features available including a bilingual audio tour, a webcam system for Taylor Creek and upgraded interpretative signage, the Institute recently announced. Additionally, after decades of site stewardship by the Tahoe Heritage Foundation, site operations for the Tallac Historic Site will be assumed by the Great Basin Institute. The Foundation will continue to provide advisory support to advance historic preservation and public education programs at the National Register of Historic Places-listed Historic Site. | thegreatbasininstitute.org
