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...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...A portion of Utah, including the following areas, Castle Country, Central Mountains, Eastern Juab/Millard Counties, San Rafael Swell, Sanpete Valley, Sevier Valley, Wasatch Plateau/Book Cliffs, Bryce Canyon Country, Capitol Reef National Park and Vicinity, Glen Canyon Recreation Area/Lake Powell, South Central Utah, Southern Mountains, Upper Sevier River Valleys, Western Canyonlands, Lower Washington County, Southwest Utah and Zion National Park. This also includes recent burn scars such as Forsyth, Cottonwood, Silver King, France Canyon, and Monroe Canyon. * WHEN...From Saturday afternoon through Monday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, dry washes, slot canyons, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations such as slickrock areas and recent burn scars. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Anomalously high moisture is forecast to impact the region with the arrival of the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel. While this is expected to be a long duration rainfall event, scattered instances of heavier rainfall rates are expected with stronger storms yielding flash flooding concerns given saturated soils and prior burn scars. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

About
Situated at 7,000 feet in a high mountain valley adjacent to Joes Valley Reservoir, this group campground offers a base camp for exploring the Wasatch Plateau in central Utah. The site's centerpiece is a large pavilion that provides shade over picnic tables, though minimal natural shade exists elsewhere in the immediate area. A spacious gravel parking area accommodates vehicles of various sizes including RVs. The reservoir provides excellent fishing opportunities for cutthroat, rainbow trout, and trophy splake, along with boating, water skiing, and canoeing. The 350+ mile Arapeen Off-Highway Vehicle Trail System is accessible from nearby Reeder Trailhead, though OHV use is prohibited within the campground itself. Popular mountain fisheries at Grassy Lake, Pete's Hole, and Potters Ponds are all within 10 miles. The surrounding area offers hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, though horses are not permitted within the campground. Joe's Valley Resort nearby provides a restaurant, store, and equipment rentals.
Directions
From Orangeville, Utah, head northwest on State Route 29 for approximately 14 miles to Joes Valley Reservoir. Continue to follow SR-29 around the reservoir for about 4 more miles to the west side. Head east on Forest Road 0121 toward the Pavilion.
