Moisture associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will impact Utah this weekend bringing widespread rainfall totals ranging from 2-4". Some highly localized amounts to 6-8" are also possible, particularly across terrain-favored locations in southwestern Utah, the Book Cliffs, and Bear River Range. * WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...A portion of Utah, including the following areas, Western Millard and Juab Counties, Bear Lake and Bear River Valley, Cache Valley/Utah Portion, Eastern Box Elder County, Great Salt Lake Desert and Mountains, Northern Wasatch Front, Salt Lake Valley, Tooele and Rush Valleys, Utah Valley, Wasatch Back, Wasatch Mountains I-80 North, Wasatch Mountains South of I-80, Western Uinta Basin and Western Uinta Mountains. This includes recent burn scars such as Rocky Canyon. * WHEN...From late Saturday night through Monday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and recent burn scars. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Moisture associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will move into northern Utah this weekend producing a prolonged rainfall event. In particular, moisture interacting with a frontal boundary across far northern Utah may yield locally heavier rainfall totals compared to other locations. As a result, areal flooding is expected across northern Utah this weekend. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

About

Hope Campground is a primitive, forested campground located near Provo Canyon at 6,500 feet elevation in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. The 23 sites are nestled among maple, scrub oak, and fir trees that provide plentiful shade during summer and vibrant fall colors. Each site includes a picnic table, grill, and fire ring, with vault toilets available throughout the campground. Campers must bring all water needed as there is no potable water on-site. The campground is popular with hikers and mountain bikers due to its proximity to Rock Canyon Trail and Squaw Peak Trail, both of which begin nearby. Kyhv Peak Road itself is open to mountain biking. Vivian Park lies 6 miles up Provo Canyon along the paved Provo River Parkway, offering picnicking and fishing opportunities. The trailhead for the 14-mile round-trip hike to the summit of Mount Timpanogos is approximately 15 miles away near Sundance Resort. Access is via Kyhv Peak Road, which is narrow, steep, and winding. Vehicles with trailers exceeding 30 feet in combined length are not recommended. Gates close at 10 pm. Pets are allowed on leashes no longer than 6 feet, with a maximum of 2 pets per site. The area is bear country; all food and trash must be properly secured.

Directions

Exit 272 from I-15, 800 North, Orem, Utah. Proceed east on Highway 52 to the mouth of Provo Canyon. Go east on Highway 189 for 2 miles to the Kyhv Peak (formerly Squaw Peak) turnoff. Turn right onto Kyhv Peak Road and continue 5 miles to the campground.
