We received a call for a Chevy truck with a broken pitman arm in the Capitol Reef National Park. We grabbed parts from the parts store and loaded tools in the jeep and put the jeep on the trailer. We went to meet the customer at the Visitors Center. On our way over we noticed clouds on the mountain. It began raining as we entered the Park. We continued on to the Visitors Center and picked up the customer. There were reports of flooding throughout the Park. We headed in to talk with the Rangers to see if we could get to where we needed to go but soon realized the severity of what was going on and instead tried to offer our services to help reach any stranded people or help the Rangers access areas they couldn't. It got to the point they had to bring in a helicopter to help get stranded hikers out. We went in to the flood area after being given access by the Park Service, I DO NOT CONDONE HOW WE WENT IN TO A FLOOD AREA WHILE IT WAS STILL RAINING... It was stupid on my part but we were trying to help the Rangers with communication and accessing the situation. Once the second storm hit things got worse and we decided to leave and let them handle it. We talked with them about bringing our trucks in to help with vehicle recovery the following day to help keep their equipment free to opening roads. Our main goal is to try to help in situations like this especially in assisting the Parks in our area during emergencies. However not having any previous dealings with Capital Reef they were hesitant to let us help. (which I completely understand and have no issues with). Luckily in this whole situation nobody was seriously injured. Some vehicles were lost, but those things can be replaced. On the 3rd day we were given permission to access beyond the flood area to get the customers truck out. So we did. I hope you enjoy the video and above all take away on understanding of being careful and mindful of the weather when visiting our beautiful area. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

I love to follow these trips on Google maps. Just a note regarding the effort Rory & his crew are putting in... From Moab Motorsports to the Capitol Reef visitors center, going through Hanksville, is 148 miles... ONE WAY!!! The way they had to go out on DAY-1, via Loa & SR72 is 186 miles back home. Rory made that trek 3 DAYS IN A ROW WITH $5+/GAL. GAS & DIESEL to OFFER TO HELP THE U.S.F.S. recover stranded & flooded vehicles. THAT'S VOLUNTEER WORK, with no guarantee of compensation. So just a recap... he drove over 900 road miles, not even counting trail miles, JUST TO FINALLY GET TO THE ORIGINAL CUSTOMER, offering help was just extra.

I just watched a video on another channel from a family that got stuck in there & narrowly escaped getting swept away. They saw the car with people in it get washed past them & thankfully all of them survived. Not sure how big the event was, but the area is known for flash flooding at certain times of year. Some vehicles were destroyed, but amazingly everyone got out safe. Glad you guys didn't get stuck in it as well. I admire your dedication to getting the job done.

First time in Moab with my dad, went across a small creek crossing that was about a foot deep. Coming back later that day water looked like it was moving faster and a bit muddy but not much different and we didn’t notice that it was a lot deeper. He went to cross and once in the middle we could feel the tires leave the ground and we started floating downstream sideways. Luckily it was a short (yet deep) crossing and we bobbed down and my dad gunned it when he touched bottom. That was enough to get our front tires on the bank and pull out. After that we made note of landmarks to determine water level because not every crossing looks drastically different when flooded.

Dustin, The same situation happened with my Dad , older brother and I in the Pariah river in Cottonwood canyon south of Tropic Ut. We were in 1958 Dodge Town Wagon. We waited out the flash flood until the morning, loaded up alot of rocks in the back of the wagon and went upstream and started crossing. By the time we drifted down we were able to gun it and cross to the other side and make it to the 24th of July celebration in Henrieville, Cannonville and Tropic Ut.

Where I'm from, you can register to be a 4X4 driver for major snow events. I've driven nurses, doctors, firefighters, etc. to their jobs when things get really crazy snow-wise. It seems like it'd be a good thing for something similar (if it doesn't exist) for events like this one, where you can either get called (how they do it here for snow drivers) or show up on site and they have you on a list of authorized drivers. Then they could let you through to assist in the rescue efforts. ...at least, that seems like a good idea from my couch. Also, you guys are fantastic. Rory, you're a consummate professional-- driver, mechanic, welder, small business owner, media manager. You clearly know your shit and have engineered extremely capable tools to do your job. As a small business owner myself, I have NO idea how you get it all done, but I'm glad you are able to share your exploits with the rest of us.

I used to do quite a bit of canyoneering in Zion and other desert areas. On a multi-day trip to Capitol Reef, doing slot canyons, we did a canyon that requires rapelling into pools and swimming downstream. We finished the canyon in the main drainage headed to the Lake and started up the plateau back to the vehicle - when a monsoon hit - lightning hitting the plateau we sheltered under an overhang and watched rivulets of water combine into a flash flood that dumped into the slot canyon we had just finished. If the rain had hit an hour earlier, probably would have killed us....

Good video. It might help those that criticize understand how quick it can happen. The damage Mother Nature can inflict can be quick & brutal. Thanks for sharing.
