OFFICIAL I70 BITCH THREAD....

Once this shitshow is over, the weekend looks completely bluebird.

That said, that doesn't in anyway rule out closures.

Driving home from Steamboat to Golden. Decided to drive berthoud to avoid the tunnel. Have been stuck for an hour on the WP side of berthoud. It's dumping.

Loveland pass is closed and instead of doing the HAZMAT vehicles every hour, CDOT is just not allowing HAZMAT vehicles at the tunnel as of now. That's a welcome change and hopefully keeps EB traffic moving.

There shouldn't be much EB traffic as VP has been closed EB since 1.

Closed for an accident, apparently?

Pepe Osaka's is really the only rational thing to do at this point.

Hmm...it’s 6:20pm and googles shows I 70 closed. But only an extra hour 30 extra to Dillon. Wonder how that works?

You see, I-70 is unique in that it is an equal opportunity fucker. Fuck those people who say leave at 5 a.m., I'll drive up Friday night.

Ha ha ha ha.

I helped some pass-throughs push there car up an incline in a snowy parking lot. VP should be a breeze.

Came back to Denver from WP and traffic going the other way was fucked over the pass. Like dead stopped traffic from the MJ entrance all the way up and over to the second switchback on the east side.

Heard my friend left Denver at 3:15 and still hasn’t reached Bakersville.

Is this the weekend I70 implodes?

No it'll be smooth sailing Tuesday afternoon

Thursdays tractor trailer fire at the bottom of George town hill Headed east bound was a sign of what was coming

Took me 5 hours Steamboat to Golden today via Berthoud Pass.

Made it over Rabbit Ears about two hours before it closed. Heard it got really bad after I made it through.

Granby to Tabernash was some of the most intense driving that I've done in years. It was dumping snow and blowing hard. There was maybe 15 feet of visibility.

Duh, Eldora.

People are posting on cdot’s twitter that it’s taking 5+ hours from Denver to the tunnel. Fuck that.

I haven't heard of anyone making it through the tunnel. They left around 4pm

**smmokan** · 01-17-2020, 10:11 PM

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident..."

My friend STILL isn’t at Copper and he left with his family at 3:15.
In that time, I skied till 4 at Winter Park, drove back to Denver (slow over Berthoud but manageable), showered, dropped my kid at a sleepover, went to dinner, had drinks and came home.

Amazing that one could have driven to Taos easily or been over halfway to SLC or Jackson. But I’m sure I80 is super fucked too.
