Weather in Johnstown announces itself in the west first — a gray lid pulling over the foothills, then the temperature dropping like a dish off a shelf. Bull Canyon Landscaping meets it with plows and shovels: driveways cleared, walkways opened, parking areas pushed back before the morning starts. The catch on this side of the Front Range is that a storm rarely ends when the snow does; the wind keeps working the piles, and a drive cleared at midnight can want a second pass at six. So they come back. What people remember afterward is the simple part — stepping out the door onto bare concrete. Johnstown, Milliken, Mead and Berthoud.
