Grapevine Canyon Road, power and water infrastructure, and several buildings at Scotty\u2019s Castle were damaged by the flood water, necessitating closure of the area to the public. In response to the flood event, the National Park Service requested the USGS Nevada Water Science Center perform a channel survey and hydraulic computation of peak flow for the event and update the information on current channel conditions to delineate the flood-inundation area of Grapevine Canyon and Tie Canyon near Scotty\u2019s Castle."
