Description
Mandatory evacuation orders prompted by flooding in Pagosa Springs and Archuleta County were lifted Tuesday, while some evacuations in neighboring La Plata County, where dozens of homes have been damaged, remain in effect.
Since the flooding started early Saturday morning, 90 homes have been damaged in the Vallecito Reservoir area of La Plata County.
