Drive north past the Hermosa Cliffs in December and you can watch winter stack itself in layers — bare ground on the valley floor, an inch at the benches, a foot by the time the road climbs. Elevated Landscape & Design plows across that whole gradient, clearing driveways and lots, shoveling walks and entries, and breaking up the ice that forms where a south-facing melt runs down onto a shadowed step. Storms here can drop wet and heavy or fine and dry within an hour, and each one wants a different pass with the blade. The aim never shifts: an open drive and a clear path to the door, finished before the household needs either. Ending a route as the sky finally goes pink over the valley is its own reward.
