Debris in Cottonwood Island park – photo 250News

Prince George, B.C.- The windstorm that  created power outages in a number of neighbourhoods  in and around Prince George yesterday, also caused  damage to parks in Prince George.City Parks  crews have been busy  yesterday and today, clearing the debris caused  when  high  winds knocked down trees, and made others unstable.

Cottonwood Island Park  was especially hard hit, with numerous trails  blocked by trees that had been blown down.

Crews were not only  clearing the mess, but assessing numerous trees to ensure they were still securely rooted and  not  posing any danger to the public.
