Why foundations move in Glade Park
Mesa County is known for highly expansive Mancos shale clay. It swells dramatically under irrigation and spring moisture, then shrinks hard through the dry summer, lifting and dropping foundations year after year. Decades of flood irrigation across the Grand Valley make the cycle worse.
Glade Park's mesa-top homes deal with rocky fill, wind-driven runoff, and long freeze cycles at elevation.
