Glory Hole & Tuttletown Boat Launch Areas Open Tomorrow at New Melones
Sonora, CA...Following guidance from the White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local public health authorities, Bureau of Reclamation is increasing recreational access at New Melones. Reclamation is working with federal, state and local public health authorities to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and using a phased approach to increase access on a case-by-case basis.
Beginning May 9, New Melones will reopen access to its boat launches and trails in both Calaveras and Tuolumne counties. The Glory Hole Recreation Area’s boat launch facilities, trails and associated parking areas and the Tuttletown Recreation Area’s boat launch facilities, fish cleaning station, trails and associated parking areas will open.
Since the health and safety of the public and our employees continues to be our number one priority, the following facilities remain closed until further notice:

- Natural Bridges trail
- Tuttletown RV dump station
