Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 1:46PM PDT by NWS Elko NV

1:46 PM — October 9th, 5:30 AM

ESFLKN A low pressure system over the Pacific Northwest will drop southward into Northern California Sunday. This storm system will draw abundant atmospheric moisture associated with Tropical Storm Rachel northward into Eastern Nevada, resulting in the likelihood of rain Sunday and Sunday night. Slow storm motions and/or training cells may produce heavy rainfall and localized flooding. Of particular concern are recent, large burn scars, including the Ward fire south of Ely and the Oxley fire north of Wells. Numerous smaller burn scare from this fire season also remain vulnerable to flash flooding and debris flow. Residents near burn scars should have multiple ways to receive Flash Flood Warning and be prepared to act quickly. Travelers and recreationists should also remain alert and consider alternate plans.

About

Ruby Guard Station Rental is reportedly located in the Ruby Mountains of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest in Elko County, Nevada. The Ruby Mountains, sometimes called the "Swiss Alps of Nevada," feature glacially carved peaks, alpine lakes, and elevations exceeding 11,000 feet at Ruby Dome. Despite extensive research, no official Recreation.gov listing or USFS webpage could be found for this specific facility. The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest's camping and cabins page lists 59 camping facilities but does not include any guard station rentals. This facility may no longer be available for public reservation, may operate under a different name, or the listing data may be outdated. Campers interested in this area should contact the Mountain City-Ruby Mountains-Jarbidge Ranger District office in Elko for current information about available facilities in the Ruby Mountains.
