Webber Lake is about 45 minutes north of Truckee. Roadwork can add significant chunks of time to the route in the summer season. About 5 miles north of Truckee, cell service is super spotty, so asking for directions too late is problematic and there is no way to call for clarification.

1) From Truckee, take Highway 89 North toward Sierraville for a little over 14 miles. Your looking for the “Jackson Meadows” turnoff to the left.

2) Take the road to the left with a lot of potholes. It gets better in 100 yards.

3) Stay on Jackson Meadows Road for about 8 miles. There is a sign on the right side of the road for Webber Lake, about 20 feet off the road, so it is easy to miss. You’re making a left turn.

4) Proceed down the dirt road and you will see Webber Lake ahead. Keep your speed in check to keep dust down, unless you like getting yelled at.

5) Take the first right to a dirt road. There’s likely a sign indicating “West Campground”.

6) In about 1/4 of a mile you will see a tall firehouse looking building well off the road on the right. That is your cue to take the next left. There should be a sign saying Lacey Meadows & West Campground.

7) In another hundred yards or so, take the left fork the West Campground. It becomes a one way loop to the right.

8) The group site, also labelled as #12, is at the far end of the loop. There may be a chain across the entry. It’s easy to just unhook the chain.
