Flood Watch issued January 2 at 2:34PM PST until January 5 at 4:00PM PST by NWS Reno NV
Periods of moderate to heavy rain may fall this weekend over a decent snowpack from the Christmas storm system. Rain/snow elevations will be initially around 6500 to 7000 feet Saturday, increasing runoff as the snow melts. Flows in rivers may increase quickly and approach flood levels. Rain/snow elevations are forecast to drop below 6000 feet Sunday into Monday. * WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt continues to be possible. * WHERE...A portion of northeast California, including the following area, Lassen-Eastern Plumas-Eastern Sierra Counties, including the Susan River near Susanville, and the Middle Fork Feather River near Portola. * WHEN...From Saturday morning through Monday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in isolated flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations including poor drainage areas. Rockfalls are also possible in areas of steep terrain. The Susan River is currently forecast to reach action stage by midday Saturday, and the Middle Fork Feather River is currently forecast to reach action stage by Monday afternoon. However, greater than expected rainfall and/or delayed transition to snowfall could easily push the Susan and the Middle Fork Feather rivers higher. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Enhanced runoff and sediment transport are likely below recent burn areas, but debris flows are not expected. - For river forecast updates: https://www.cnrfc.noaa.gov For flood safety information: http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
About
Camp Lisa Group Campground is situated within Plumas-Eureka State Park, a 6,700-acre park located high on the east slopes of the Sierra Nevada in Plumas County. The park preserves the rich history of hardrock gold mining that dominated the region from the 1850s until World War II, when over 8 million dollars worth of gold was extracted from what was once called Gold Mountain. Today, visitors can explore the Mining History Museum, the historic Mohawk Stamp Mill, and several preserved buildings from the mining era. The group campground serves as a base for exploring the park's extensive trail network, which connects to the Lakes Basin Recreation Area and the Pacific Crest Trail. Fishing opportunities abound in numerous alpine lakes and streams within short distance of camp, including Jamison Creek which flows through the main campground area. The high Sierra setting at approximately 7,400 feet elevation provides stunning mountain views and diverse wildlife including black bear, deer, mountain lion, and various smaller mammals. Metal bear-resistant food lockers are required for storing all food, beverages, and toiletries. The park operates seasonally with the campground typically closing after Labor Day and reopening around Memorial Day weekend. Winter transforms the area into a cross-country skiing destination with groomed Nordic ski trails. The park is accessible via County Road A-14, located five miles west of Blairsden. High Sierra weather can change abruptly, and visitors should prepare for varied conditions with layered clothing.
