Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 3:13PM MDT by NWS Salt Lake City UT

3:13 PM — October 9th, 6:00 PM

ESFSLC The remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will merge with a fall-like storm system over the western United States, bringing moderate to heavy rainfall and a resulting threat of flooding. Widespread rainfall of 1 to 3 inches is expected, locally in excess of 3 inches, particularly across south aspects of southern Utah mountains, between late Saturday and Monday morning. Expect many area waterways including streams, rivers, normally dry washes, creeks, and slot canyons to have rising, fast flows by Sunday evening. Current forecasts do not bring any rivers to flood stage, but this will be monitored as the fine details of heavy rain bands become more confident. Those with activities near rivers, streams, creeks and recent burn scars should closely monitor the forecast over the next several days. Those with outdoor plans Sunday onward that include any travel near waterways across Utah should consider alternate plans. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible through at least Wednesday. While the rainfall rates with these additional rounds of precipitation will generally be lower, areas that receive significant precipitation during the weekend will be extra sensitive to any additional rainfall.

About

Little Lyman Lake Campground is a small, rustic campground nestled at 9,200 feet in the Uinta Mountain range within the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Located on the shore of five-acre Little Lyman Lake, the campground offers 10 single sites, most with lake views and natural shade from surrounding conifers. The tranquil setting is ideal for anglers targeting the lake's fish population and for those seeking a quieter high-country camping experience. Each site accommodates up to 8 people and includes a fire ring and picnic table. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no potable water on site, so campers must bring all drinking water. The campground is bear country, requiring secure food storage. Nearby recreation includes hiking trails, backpacking routes into the High Uintas Wilderness, ATV and equestrian trails, and additional fishing at nearby Lyman Lake. Access requires navigating a series of forest roads from Mountain View, Wyoming, with the final approach on Forest Road 070. The remote location and primitive facilities appeal to experienced campers seeking solitude in a spectacular alpine environment.
