Flood Watch issued October 9 at 12:59PM MST until October 12 at 5:00AM MST by NWS Flagstaff AZ

12:59 PM — October 10th, 12:00 PM

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...Yavapai, western Coconino, northern Gila, and far southern Navajo counties. * WHEN...From Saturday morning through late Sunday night. * IMPACTS...Flash flooding will be possible in creeks, normally dry washes, swimming holes, and over recently burned areas. Low-water crossings may be flooded. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - A upper-level trough will help pull moisture from the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel up into western Arizona to produce showers and thunderstorms Saturday, followed by extended periods of rainfall through at least Sunday. Thunderstorms will have the potential to produce heavy rainfall that could lead to flash flooding, while extended periods of rain can lead to elevated streams, rivers, and flow through washes. Greatest risk of heavy rainfall looks be along higher terrain due to upsloping. - Additional information is available at weather.gov/flagstaff.

About

Beehives Primitive Campground provides a rustic camping experience within Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, situated on the west side of Highway 89 near Page, Arizona. The campground sits across from the Wahweap South Entrance and offers easy access to the scenic Beehives slickrock formations, known for their distinctive swoopy sandstone shapes. The campground features 21 designated sites available on a first-come, first-served basis at $14 per night, with a maximum stay of three consecutive nights. Each site includes a picnic table, and vault toilets are maintained year-round. However, this is a truly primitive camping experience: there is no potable water, no hookups, no dump station, and no trash service. Campers must bring all water and pack out all trash. Campfires and glass containers are prohibited. RV and trailer camping is permitted, though facilities are extremely limited. There are no restrooms beyond vault toilets, and portable toilets are required for RV use. The campground is unpaved and not ADA accessible. Fees can be paid at the Automatic Fee Machine on site or at the Wahweap South Entrance Station.

Directions

From Carl Hayden Visitor Center: turn right (north) on Hwy 89. After less than half a mile, before the Wahweap South entrance, turn left onto an unmarked dirt road. Bear right after the cattle guard, then you will see the campground sign with regulations.
