  • Gunlock Falls rush into Santa Clara River as Reservoir reaches full capacity
    SANTA CLARA, Utah (3/15/2023) -It’s been about 13 years since residents in Santa Clara have had to deal with any major flooding. Heavy rains and snowmelt are contributing to the overflow of Gunlock Reservoir which is now rushing over the falls and into the Santa Clara River. Area officials are monitoring the floodwaters as they head downstream, while locals headed to Gunlock Falls to see the power of the water.
    Warning : As of late Wednesday afternoon, Gunlock Road was closed from Hwy 91 to Gunlock Reservoir because of flooding.

    Community Education is a fantastic, if not genuinely genius, concept. I don't even live in the area, and I have a clearer sense of what is being done, why, and what I can do to stay safe. Awesome work. I want one where I live.

      It’s gotta go underground still and if the groundwater is filled we’re still going to need water
