REMINDER! Owens River Gorge Closed to Public Access June 4-24, 2025
LADWP will release higher-than-normal water down the Owens River Gorge from June 4 to June 24, 2025, in cooperation with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and Mono County.
During this time, no public access will be allowed within the Owens River Gorge from Long Valley Dam to the Control Gorge Power Plant.
The required three-week flow will help improve fishery and wildlife habitat along the 10-mile stretch of river between the Upper Gorge Power Plant and Pleasant Valley Reservoir.
The public is advised to avoid the area due to hazardous conditions. Please take all warning signs and barricades seriously. High water levels with strong currents pose potential safety hazards that could result in personal injury and property damage. LADWP personnel will monitor the area.
Real-time data on flow levels are available online:
