They’re called Rocky Mountains for a reason.

CNN.com – Rock slide closes I-70 in Colorado – Nov 25, 2004

Between 30 and 40 large rocks tumbled onto the road, including boulders up to 8 feet by 10 feet, according to a department statement.

An engineer at the scene said one boulder was the size of a van.

The slide caused major damage to both sides of the interstate, including two eastbound bridge decks that had holes punched into them, authorities said.

“It is estimated that about a half-dozen boulders are embedded between 6 and 8 feet into the roadway,” Shanks said.
