Journey with Equus horse rescue is seeking volunteers to help repair damage after storms saturated the property outside Elizabeth in Elbert County
ELIZABETH, Colo. — Storm after storm has saturated Journey with Equus horse rescue outside Elizabeth in Elbert County.
The nonprofit was founded in 2015. They rescue horses that are at risk of being surrendered or being shipped to slaughter. In one storm, over a foot of hail fell shredding their tarp shelters, winds also knocked over sheds and ripped up support fences on the property. On top of that damage, widespread flooding has caused a mucky mess.
They are trying to get the wet mud cleaned up, but need fencing back in before they can move the horses out of the soaking-wet areas. It's dangerous conditions for horses to be standing in.

Much of these accounts could not immediately be independently verified, and still missing is the testimony of survivors, who have been transferred to a closed camp and kept away from journalists.
