Monument sits up on the Palmer Divide, where the interstate climbs to its highest point between Denver and the Springs and storms stall out to empty their pockets. A Custom Handyman works those mornings — out ahead of the light, opening a driveway while the ponderosas are still holding their load. There is a real satisfaction in one clean pass down a long drive, the berm pushed back off the mailbox, the walk cleared and treated all the way to the doorstep. Nobody at this altitude is startled by snow in May, and the plow is ready for it. Plowing, shoveling and ice control run from the first November upslope to the last stubborn spring storm, across Monument, Palmer Lake and Woodmoor.
