I-70 Back Open Through Glenwood Canyon

As if none of us have ever come back with a cool, quasi-epic story instead of being victim to tragic rockfall, a fatal stumble, a heart attack, an embolism, a lightning strike, a bear attack, collapsing cornice, some psycho with an axe, a falling tree, carbon monoxide, even falling asleep at the wheel getting to a mountain. If you can't accept the fact that sometimes "s**t happens", then you live with the illusion that your epic genius and profound wilderness intelligence has put you in total and complete control of yourself, your partners, and the mountain. How mystified you'll be when "s**t happens" to you! - FM

A couple of things to note, the rest areas and all exit ramps in the canyon will remain closed/ Also there will be head-to-head in the east bound lanes from Hanging Lake tunnel west due to construction work on the westbound tier, this is the same as before the fire. Expect safety closures if it rains due to possible mud and rockfall.
