LITTLETON, Colo. (KDVR) — The cleanup continues days after that spring storm.
As the Problem Solvers have reported, trees have been hit the hardest following that wet, heavy snow — so much so that some cities around the metro area are opening temporary drop-off locations where people can take some of those broken tree limbs.
Monday in Littleton, several people were starting off the work week working up a sweat, including David Roberts.
“It’s more fun to run a chainsaw than sit at a desk,” Roberts said.
He is from Littleton and he’s been helping several neighbors clear the nature-made clutter since Friday night’s snowstorm.
“I actually helped cut two big tree limbs that fell on neighbor’s houses, he explained, adding: “One of them was 30 inches.”
He says he’s been a resident for 30 years here and this is the worst spring storm —in terms of damage — that he can recall.
But he still has optimism, knocking on wood for spring’s return.
