Awwww . . . . . one of my top 10 most scenic drives!

Check out my album:

Somewhere in there are pictures I took while driving through there a few weeks back in the snow. A beautiful drive, winter or summer, for sure. I suspect that repairs will be expensive and lengthy, creating traffic delays and backups that will stretch for miles.

Are they setting up a detour? Seems like there'd be real limited options for one...

I remember a few years ago 70 being closed due to a sinkhole(no, not Paris Hilton)and the detour was about 30 miles outta the way.Nice scenery but some of those cliffs.......You would have run out of fuel before you hit bottom.
