GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4) – A driver talked with CBS4 about her close call with a giant boulder that fell onto Interstate 70.
The boulder fell onto the westbound lane of the highway Monday just outside Glenwood Springs in Glenwood Canyon.
Charm Jones says the boulder was the size of a Volkswagen Bug, but there were also other, watermelon-sized boulders falling across the highway.
“Complete shock, ‘Oh my god,’ and hit the brakes and turned to get away from it; and make a decision to stop or punch it,” Jones said. “I just had to punch it. I wasn’t going to hang out long.”
Jones owns a transportation company that sent her rolling through Glenwood Canyon early Monday.
The Colorado Department of Transportation says the freezing and thawing temperatures probably caused the rocks to fall.
