A damage assessment was performed on 8/4/2025 after delayed reports
of extensive tree damage was discovered WSW of Woodland Park,
Colorado. At 1:55PM a tornado touched down 6 miles WSW of Woodland
Park. During the survey widespread tree damage was surveyed with the
primary damage indicated being uprooted softwood trees with an
occasional snapped softwood tree. The path of the tornado was clear
as there were trees oriented in a cyclonic pattern. Near the end of
the damage path the tornado made surveying inaccessible do to the
amount of trees mangled over one another, as well as the topographic
grade in which the tornado followed.
