The boulder, which is the size of a two-story building, tumbled from a cliff 2,000 feet above the roadway, CDOT officials said.
The new landmark boulder will be dubbed "Memorial Rock," in honor of Memorial Day Weekend, when it fell, officials said. Leaving the boulder where it fell will save taxpayers around $200,000 in blasting and cleanup costs, Polis said. |
Move it to Boulder!
