Truckee river is low, and is a shallow river any way. There are only a few spots even deep enough for real swimming, let alone jumping. One of the only spots is the spot where Douglas set up his rope swing. Tahoe area not so great for cliff diving. American river canyon is better.

Long lake is pretty sick, and there's a rad ropeswing up there too. Or check out Emerald Pools. The rope swing on the Truckee is completely down now, and I wouldn't recommend hitting it anyway.

DL Bliss has a little rock to jump off.  Emerald pools is the best place to go that I've been to around here.  The rope swing on the upper Truckee was super sketch, a tiny little deep spot to land in.
