County Road G was temporarily closed Thursday evening after two crashes in slick conditions.
The Colorado State Patrol responded to crashes Thursday evening on County Road G.

Two vehicles crashed, and another slid off County Road G Thursday evening in snowy conditions.

The crashes and slick conditions caused Road G west of Road 21 to be closed about 5:30 p.m. until a sander truck could arrive and the wrecks were cleared, said Colorado State Trooper Tonja Cowan.

The two vehicle crash occurred in the 19000 block, and a one vehicle slide off was in the 16000 block, Cowan said.

The crashes are under investigation. Injuries have not yet been reported.

Other vehicles on Road G were “spinning out” on fresh snow as law enforcement and rescue vehicles arrived, officials said.

About 6 p.m., two sanding trucks arrived to improve road conditions. Drivers in vehicles idled at the intersection of County Road 21 and G waiting for the road to open so they could go home.
