The County of Inyo has closed Diaz Lake to water-related activities due to the discovery of harmful blue-green algae blooms.
Facilities at the recreation area will remain open and camping is still available, however the public is restricted from entering the water – whether swimming, boating, or fishing. The blooms are particularly harmful to pets, and they should be kept out of the water as well.
