Vandals damage Colorado Springs’ iconic Garden of the Gods park
Vandals defaced parts of Garden of the Gods Park, covering some of the park’s rocks in graffiti, the park posted on Facebook Wednesday.
A Facebook post from the park stressed the importance of leaving “no trace” when exploring nature.
“It’s just not okay or cool to carve on anything in the park,” the post read.
Gazette news partner KKTV reported that crews finished cleaning up the graffiti Friday.
