Thursday’s wildfires in Boulder County destroyed hundreds of homes and other structures. This is what was left of one Louisville neighborhood on Friday evening, Dec. 31, as snow be began to fall.

On a cul de sac in Louisville, surrounded by other homes and streets and a nearby school untouched by Thursday's wind-driven maelstrom, the destruction was complete. On this New Year's Eve, as snow began to fall, there was near silence in the smoky damp air. More than 500 homes were lost in Boulder County in the Marshall and Middle Fork fires.
