What the National Weather Service wrote

Numerous mudslides occurred in remote areas of San Juan County, most notably at Stony Pass near Pole Creek. Backcountry roads were closed due to cleanup operations.

The wider storm

Abundant monsoon moisture remained in place across the Western Slope. As a result, another round of widespread showers and thunderstorms developed across the area with many storms producing heavy rain. This led to several reports of flash flooding and debris flows across portions of west-central and southwest Colorado.

Began near Eureka (37.7950, -107.5500).
