After receiving 0.98 inches of heavy rain on August 4 and receiving another 1.20 inches throughout the whole day on August 5, flash flooding occurred. Rocks and other debris were washed across the pasture, into some trees, and also across the driveway due to the culverts running high. The debris and water flowing across the gravel driveway washed out a portion of the driveway. The siding on one of the outbuildings came off. Additionally, both the power and phone lines were out for a couple of hours. The Colorado Department of Transportation was out until 0200 on August 6 clearing the roads.
