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

Mill Hollow Guard Station offers a unique opportunity to stay in a historic Forest Service cabin while supporting the ongoing maintenance and restoration of these heritage structures. The cabin sits at 8,800 feet elevation in a dense forest of fir, lodgepole pine, and aspen next to Mill Hollow Reservoir. The facility features two bedrooms with queen beds, a full kitchen with cookware provided, a gathering area, flush toilet, shower, wood stove for heat, and propane-powered lights and appliances. Guests must bring their own linens, dishes, and glassware. No pets are allowed. Recreation opportunities abound: canoeing and kayaking on the reservoir, fishing for rainbow and albino rainbow trout, hiking the 1-mile Lakeshore Trail or 2-mile Mill Hollow Trail. Soapstone Basin, 8 miles north, offers OHV trails and excellent birding.

Directions
