Capitol Reef Water Availability?

[ColoradoBackpacker8]

Has anyone been down to Capitol Reef recently and could comment on water conditions? How well are potholes holding water? I'm specifically looking for a water update for the area between Grand Wash and Pleasant Creek, but any general info would be great as well. Thanks!

I have no first-hand knowledge, but I definitely would not trust those potholes to have any water right now. It's been an extremely hot and dry year. The watery canyons (the ones usually better in May/June) are probably a better choice right now
