We love floating this section! Truckee River Taxi started doing shuttle rides for $5 a person between the take-out at River Ranch and the top of the river. They run shuttles 10-6 m-f and 10-8 weekends, or you can do taxi rides round trip to/from river with gear and pets for cheap from your house/hotel. If you have kayaks or paddle boards they have a system devised so you can float toward your car if u park at the bottom. It's a great service they started in 2011 to reduce the 2-car shuttle and with the round trip taxi people can imbibe and get home safe without leaving a car or two parked in town or on the highway.
