Gunbarrel wakes up looking west — the Flatirons cut sharp above the rooftops and Longs Peak keeps its snow on the horizon well into June. Boulder Lawn & Garden works the blocks between Gunbarrel Hill and the Boulder Reservoir with mowing, edging, trimming, bed care and seasonal cleanups. This is a place where open prairie is still visible at the end of the street, so a lawn here is a deliberate green thing, held against dry wind and long hot afternoons. Water counts for a great deal on the Front Range, and a cut set at the right height leaves turf shaded and holding rather than scorched. Lawn and garden care for homes across Gunbarrel and the countryside just north of Boulder.
