A different view of Durango this morning 🌊🍂
After a powerful stretch of fall storms, the Animas River has surged, spilling into surrounding low-lying areas and transforming the valley into a landscape we don't often see.
These aerial photos captured today, October 23, show the extent of the flooding, with fall colors still on full display across the valley.
At the time of these photos, river flows were reported at approximately 10,600 cubic feet per second (CFS), a remarkable amount of water moving through our community.
While the views are incredible, flooding is no small matter. Please use caution around the river, avoid flooded areas, and stay informed as conditions continue to change.
Stay safe, Durango! ❤️
