Hydrologic Outlook issued October 9 at 10:53AM MDT by NWS Grand Junction CO
ESFGJT A strong low pressure system off the Pacific Coast will begin to draw in tropical moisture associated with Topical Storm Rachel this weekend. This strong southerly fetch will draw anomalously high moisture content across the Desert Southwest and into eastern Utah and western Colorado. The chance for widespread precipitation increases Saturday evening into Sunday. Total precipitation forecasts range from 1 to 3 inches across high terrain, with highest amounts favoring the Uintas, Tavaputs and the Southwest San Juan mountains. Embedded thunderstorms are also possible Sunday afternoon, increasing the threat for flash flooding across vulnerable terrain. While confidence in location and rainfall rates remain low at this time, the potential for rapidly rising rivers, streams, normally dry arroyos and slot canyons are possible Sunday through Monday. Please follow the evolving forecast, especially if your plans including recreating or commuting across eastern Utah and western Colorado Sunday onward. Also, keep in mind weather potential above your location and upstream, particularly for those who reside below sensitive terrain like recent burn scars.
About
Superbowl Campground sits in the Indian Creek corridor of Bears Ears National Monument, a landscape of broad valleys rimmed by dramatic Wingate Sandstone cliffs. The 37 individual campsites are distributed near the banks of Indian Creek, where cottonwood trees provide shade at some sites. Creek flow is intermittent and typically dry except in spring or after precipitation. Each campsite accommodates up to 10 people and 2 vehicles. The Indian Creek area has gained international recognition for world-class crack climbing, with routes ascending the sheer sandstone walls of Bridger Jack Mesa, Lavender Mesa, and North and South Six Shooter Peaks. Beyond climbing, visitors enjoy cultural resource viewing, scenic photography, and OHV touring on designated routes. Newspaper Rock, featuring one of the largest known collections of petroglyphs, is 13.5 miles to the southeast. This is primitive camping with limited services. There is no potable water, no cell service, and wood collection is prohibited. Campers must bring their own water supply and firewood. A separate group site accommodating up to 50 people is available by reservation through Recreation.gov.
Directions
From U.S. Route 191, turn west onto Utah State Route 211 and travel approximately 25.8 miles. Turn south onto County Road 0574. The campground is 0.25 miles down the natural surface road.
