HorseThief Reservoir received approximately 4 inches of rain during last night's storm, along with strong winds that caused some damage around the lake. We had two pontoons flipped over, several items blown around the campground and storage areas, some downed trees, and minor structural damage in a few areas. ⛈💨

The good news is that all campers stayed upright, our yurts remain intact, and no one was injured. ‼ All campers with visible damage have been notified... but if you are a long-term camper or have belongings stored in our storage area, we ask that you stop by to check on your items to ensure everything is accounted for and secure.

☀ The sun is out and drying things up, while our team is cleaning up the park to make sure the facilities are ready for you all to enjoy again!
