What the National Weather Service wrote

A minor mudslide occurred on the south side of the Crystal River by Marble as a result of heavy rain from thunderstorms.

The wider storm

The plume of deepest monsoon moisture shifted over portions of western Colorado in response to a midlevel shortwave trough which tracked overhead. This resulted in an uptick in shower and thunderstorm activity. Storms were slow moving and produced heavy rain. Localized flooding and debris flows occurred across Montezuma and Gunnison counties.
