Newest state park reopened after flood damage

Colorado’s newest state park reopened Saturday morning after damage from flash flooding caused an almost month-long hiatus.

Fisher’s Peak was closed indefinitely the weekend of May 22, after torrential rains caused significant damage to the park’s trails and parking lot.

But Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s Southeast Region tweeted Saturday that the park had been opened back up as soon as possible “even though the bumps and bruises are not healed.”
