Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 3:13PM MDT by NWS Salt Lake City UT

October 8th, 3:13 PM — 6:00 PM

ESFSLC The remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will merge with a fall-like storm system over the western United States, bringing moderate to heavy rainfall and a resulting threat of flooding. Widespread rainfall of 1 to 3 inches is expected, locally in excess of 3 inches, particularly across south aspects of southern Utah mountains, between late Saturday and Monday morning. Expect many area waterways including streams, rivers, normally dry washes, creeks, and slot canyons to have rising, fast flows by Sunday evening. Current forecasts do not bring any rivers to flood stage, but this will be monitored as the fine details of heavy rain bands become more confident. Those with activities near rivers, streams, creeks and recent burn scars should closely monitor the forecast over the next several days. Those with outdoor plans Sunday onward that include any travel near waterways across Utah should consider alternate plans. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible through at least Wednesday. While the rainfall rates with these additional rounds of precipitation will generally be lower, areas that receive significant precipitation during the weekend will be extra sensitive to any additional rainfall.

About

Upper Narrows Campground is a primitive Forest Service campground in South Willow Canyon on the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Located southwest of Grantsville at 6,400 feet elevation, the campground features 6 single sites and group sites accommodating up to 50 people. Sites are dispersed over approximately one mile of gravel road through a scenic desert canyon forested with oak, maple, and juniper trees. Willow Creek flows alongside the campground, offering rainbow and brown trout fishing. The multi-use Stansbury Front and Medina Flat Trails start nearby, providing access to the rugged Deseret Peak Wilderness. This is bear country, so proper food storage is required. The campground is primitive with vault toilets, picnic tables, and campfire rings at each site. There is no potable water; campers must bring all water needed. The access road is gravel but passable by standard vehicles. Leashed pets are permitted with a maximum of two dogs per site.

Directions

From Salt Lake City, head west on I-80 for 36 miles. Take the Stansbury-Tooele/Route 35 exit and travel south 3 miles to Route 138 West. Continue 10 miles to Grantsville. Go through Grantsville to Cooley Street and turn south; drive 5 miles to the South Willow Canyon turnoff. The campground is 3.2 miles from the forest boundary via gravel road.
