The upper Mill Creek Canyon road closes to vehicle traffic every year on November 1 and does not reopen to cars until late spring, depending on weather and road conditions, restricting motorized access to canyon-area properties through the winter. Dogs must be on-leash at all times in the canyon on even-numbered days, and are allowed off-leash on trails on odd-numbered days. (Mill Creek Canyon — Salt Lake County Parks & Recreation) Millcreek's municipal code prohibits parking a vehicle on any city street when it is snowing or snow is on the street during November, December, January, February, March, and April.

Calls come from around Olympus Cove, Millcreek Canyon, the benches.
A leak from a fitting or the relief valve can often be repaired, but a leak seeping from the tank's body itself means the tank has corroded through and needs replacing, not repairing.
