Hydrologic Outlook issued April 10 at 4:30PM PDT by NWS Pendleton OR
ESFPDT Moderate rain this weekend in the Washington Cascades and northern Blue Mountains combined with snowmelt from above normal temperatures will lead to river rises this weekend and early next week. Most rivers are currently running at low levels and the increased streamflows will not be a problem. However, the Naches River at Cliffdell and at Naches are expected to rise above Action Stage early Saturday through Monday. The Grande Ronde River at Troy is expected to rise but stay barely below Action Stage Monday through Tuesday morning. Only localized minor flooding is expected. Please monitor the latest river forecasts from the National Weather Service for additional information.
About
Taneum Cabin is a small four-room Forest Service rental cabin located approximately 20 miles west of Ellensburg in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Nestled along Taneum Creek at 2,400 feet elevation, the cabin sits in a quiet, secluded area surrounded by ponderosa pine and cottonwood trees. The cabin is accessible by car and provides many comforts of home while maintaining a rustic atmosphere. The cabin features four rooms: a bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen. Running water is available inside the cabin, and propane is provided for cooking, operating the refrigerator, and heating water. Battery-operated lanterns provide lighting. Outside, guests will find a fire ring and picnic table. The cabin accommodates up to 4 guests and is available from Memorial Day through Labor Day at $100 per night. The location offers prime access to hiking, fishing, horseback riding, and mountain biking trails. Off-road vehicles, particularly motorbikes, share nearby trails with hikers and mountain bikers. Anglers can cast a line into Taneum Creek, which provides good opportunities for catching fair-sized trout in June and July. A small campground is located just up the road, less than a quarter mile from the cabin. The area is home to abundant wildlife including deer, squirrels, and migratory birds.
