Photos and update on Colorado I-70 rockslide

The Colorado Dept. of Transportation is posting updates and great photos of yesterday's rockslide in Glenwood Canyon that damaged and closed I-70.

Crews were scaling the cliff this morning to either pry loose an unstable rock about 20 feet in diameter or determine what other options they have.
