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

Yellow Pine Campground is located on the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway at an elevation of 7,200 feet in the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah. This is not the same campground as the Yellowpine on the southern slope of the Uinta Mountains near Rock Creek. The 33 single-unit campsites are situated among shady pines and aspen, with Yellow Pine Creek running alongside the campground. Dense stands of trees provide good shade and colorful fall foliage. Each site accommodates up to 8 people and includes a fire ring and picnic table. Vault toilets are located throughout the campground, but there is no potable water available, so campers must bring their own supply. The campground is unpaved and operates on a first-come, first-served basis. ATVs are prohibited, and there is a 7-day stay limit. Numerous hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails crisscross this region, including Yellow Pine, North Fork, and Shingle Creek trails, all of which begin nearby. The Lower Provo River below the site and across the highway offers good trout fishing. This is bear country, so all food and trash must be stored securely.

Directions

From Kamas, UT, at the intersection of State Route 32 (Main St.) and State Route 150 (Center St.), take Route 150 (Mirror Lake Scenic Byway) east 6.8 miles to the campground sign. Turn left into the campground.
