The grade he's talking about on the west side is from Dillon, CO to the Eisenhower/Johnson Tunnels on I-70, where they did the Rumble in the Rockies shootout a few years ago. Right before New Year's Eve '13, I was going down that grade and saw an Expedition on the right side of the road missing a wheel.... the wheel was still rolling along, riding the guardrail on the opposite side of the road at least a mile further down the hill. It's a very fun place to drive.

Add 14 more wheels and about 70,000 more pounds and it gets reallllllly fun.

I-70

Every time I've been through there it snowed too. Beautiful country and you can almost coast/slide all the way to Denver from the top. - Ed
