Rinse and Repeat
OK, got everything cleared out? Good! The next step is to rinse the gutter and downspout system and flush it out. Do this with a hose supplying water at the farthest gutter section from the downspout opening.

Once a gutter section is rinsed clear, repeat the entire process in this tutorial on the next gutter section proceeding around the house.
