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
Twelve Mile Flat Campground occupies a wildflower-filled meadow beneath Mt. Baldy near the top of the Wasatch Plateau at 10,120 feet elevation. Mature spruce and pine trees dot the open landscape, providing partial shade. The campground includes single-family sites and two group sites that can accommodate up to 50 people and eight vehicles each. All sites feature picnic tables and fire rings with benches. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no potable water or garbage service. ATV trails are abundant in the area, providing riding for all skill levels. Skyline Drive runs along the plateau ridgeline for over 60 miles, offering mountain scenery, glacial cirques, and views of spruce-fir and aspen forests. A steep drive over the ridge leads to Ferron Reservoir for canoeing and rainbow and cutthroat trout fishing. Wildlife sightings are common, and autumn brings spectacular fall colors. This is a pack-it-in, pack-it-out facility with a campground host on site. Water can be obtained at Ferron Reservoir approximately 2 miles away. OHV riding is prohibited within the campground except for entry and exit. Pets must be leashed, and no horses or livestock are allowed.
Directions
From Mayfield, head east on Canyon Road (becomes Forest Road 022) approximately 12 miles. From Ferron, go about 28 miles west on Forest Road 022.
