Back in Colorado, many of you know Ute Pass out of the Springs now gets closed when rain hits the Waldo Canyon burn scars, a couple of fatalities already. On thur. evening significant rain in Woodland Park and down Ute Pass caused flooding that looks like it will have me trapped in until the road can be repaired, know more in the morning. I forgot how intense large thunder storms can be at elevation. Several bouts of hail, sky ripping lightning, thunder just overhead, and heavy rain for hours. Our road in was covered with rushing water, floating stumps and debris with the entire canyon bottom consumed with flowing water just below Woodland Park.It appears images will have to be posted when I have better signal.
