    I-70 is closed in CO in the Glenwood Canyon thanks to a large rock slide.
    State officials are uncertain when it will reopen.

    Nope, worse! This one is a 200 mile detour, if I remember correctly.

    Yeah, anytime that I70 has to detour west of the foothills....it is gonna be a long detour. There are no other direct routes in the mountains and most routes don't allow truck traffic at all....local or not.
