200 Mile I-70 Detour at Glenwood Springs

They've had I-70 shut down in both directions for 4 days at Glenwood Springs. Today, they finally managed to get the interstate reopened with one lane in each direction. What surprised me, however, is how long the detour is. They shut down a 17 mile section of the interstate in both directions and the shortest possible detour around it is over 200 miles. That's whacked.

And then, of course, some poor woman is taking the detour and a rock the size of a "basketball" falls onto her car, killing her passenger instantly. The driver was unhurt.
