Hydrologic Outlook issued April 10 at 4:30PM PDT by NWS Pendleton OR
ESFPDT Moderate rain this weekend in the Washington Cascades and northern Blue Mountains combined with snowmelt from above normal temperatures will lead to river rises this weekend and early next week. Most rivers are currently running at low levels and the increased streamflows will not be a problem. However, the Naches River at Cliffdell and at Naches are expected to rise above Action Stage early Saturday through Monday. The Grande Ronde River at Troy is expected to rise but stay barely below Action Stage Monday through Tuesday morning. Only localized minor flooding is expected. Please monitor the latest river forecasts from the National Weather Service for additional information.
About
Manastash Camp is a remote Forest Service campground situated at 4,300 feet elevation in the Manastash area of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. This lightly-used facility offers 14 individual trailer/tent sites along with an improved dispersed camping area suitable for groups. The campground is popular among off-highway vehicle enthusiasts who use it as a base for exploring the network of forest roads and OHV trails in the surrounding area. The campground provides vault toilets but no potable water, so visitors must bring their own water supply. At just $5 per night, it offers an affordable option for those seeking a more primitive camping experience. The facility operates on a first-come, first-served basis with cash or check payment required at the site. Access to Manastash Camp requires driving approximately 19 miles on Manastash Road (which becomes Forest Service Road 31) from the town of Thorp, then turning onto Forest Service Road 3104. The remote location and gravel forest roads make this campground best suited for experienced campers comfortable with backcountry access. Northwest Forest Passes and Interagency Recreation Passes are honored at this site.
