Folks enjoying Sand Flats this weekend despite some heavy rain showers. The campground was close to full; expect the same this coming weekend. Sand Flats appreciates the volunteers who came and helped pick up trash for Public Lands Day!

Thunderstorms late last week left behind potholes full of water along the trail, and snow on the La Sal Mountain peaks; the first of the season.
