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...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

Renegade Campground occupies a prime location on the shore of Strawberry Reservoir, one of Utah's premier fishing destinations. At 7,700 feet elevation, the campground is set among open sagebrush-covered hills with panoramic views of the reservoir. The 45 single and double sites lack shade but compensate with direct access to excellent fishing for rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, and kokanee salmon. The campground features modern amenities including flush toilets, potable water, paved roads, and garbage service. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, and grill. Camping fees include use of the boat launch ramp, fish cleaning station, day-use areas, and dump stations located around Strawberry Reservoir. No hookups are available. Beyond fishing, visitors enjoy boating, water skiing, and access to the 75-mile Strawberry OHV Trail System for ATVs, mountain biking, and hiking. The nearby Strawberry Visitor Center offers interpretive displays, a working fish trap, egg collection station, and nature trail. The campground operates seasonally and is located in bear country with strict food storage requirements.
