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.

About
Rosebud ATV Campground is a small, primitive campground located high on the Colorado Plateau in the Fishlake National Forest at 8,300 feet elevation. Situated in a ponderosa pine forest on the east side of Boulder Mountain, Pleasant Creek flows near the site. The campground is designed for off-road vehicle enthusiasts, providing direct access to the Rosebud ATV Trail. The trail leads to Lower Bowns Reservoir, offering fishing and boating opportunities. Capitol Reef National Park lies approximately 30 miles to the east, featuring excellent hiking trails, historic sites, and breathtaking red rock scenery. Utah Highway 12, a National Scenic Byway known for its stunning canyon and desert landscapes, passes nearby. The campground has four single-family sites with vault toilets and picnic tables. No potable water is available, so campers must bring their own supply. This is a pack-it-in/pack-it-out facility with no trash service. Quiet hours are enforced from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
