In High Park burn zone, folks battle flash flood threat
Dozens of volunteers filled thousands of sandbags Saturday in the High Park burn area, hoping to keep residents from suffering a double-whammy loss.
With flash floods threatening to add to the pain caused by last month’s wildfire, the volunteers spent five hours working near Falls Gulch in Poudre Canyon.
The fast and furious waters dumped a good foot of ash and debris in yards and roadways.
