GLEN HAVEN, Colo. — Flash flooding washed away roads in Glen Haven, Colorado north of Estes Park Wednesday night.
The Glen Haven Area Volunteer Fire Department deemed Fishermans Lane, Old Bridge Road and Black Creek Drive impassable, according to the agency's Facebook post Thursday morning. The Miller Fork crossing was severely damaged as well.
The department also reported water and debris on Streamside Drive, but it was passable, though Glen Haven Fire recommended people use four-wheel drive in the area.
The storm downed two power lines in Glen Haven, but crews were working to repair the connection as of 5 a.m. Thursday, Glen Haven Area Volunteer Fire Department said.
All residents have been accounted for and don't have any injuries.
This is a long-standing issue for the area.
Only three buildings were left in the town as devastating floods swept through Glen Haven and across the state. A total of eight people died in the storm, including one in Larimer County.
