Hotel spokeswoman Kim Dykstra told Denver 7 that 70 rooms in nearby buildings were evacuated as a precautionary measure and that guests were relocated.roof-collapses-at-village-hotel-in-breckenridge-copy_1484198381149_53057196_ver1-0_640_480

This type of monumental snow event can lead to unexpected dangers, so be careful, be aware and look after one another.
