The wider storm
Warming temperatures in June brought rapid snow melt of mountain snow pack and led to flooding around portions of Sublette County, especially along the New Fork and Green Rivers as well as some of it's tributaries. Several low lying BLM roads were damaged or washed out during the flooding, with some roads having over 2 feet of water on them. In addition, many low lying areas had several days of flooding. However, all major state highways and bridges remained open during the flooding. There was no structural damage to buildings with most damage limited to the aforementioned gravel and dirt roads in low lying areas.
