It's been a rough year for poor I-70. Known for its terrible traffic woes though the Colorado mountains, especially on the weekends, this year, it was also covered in mud. Like, a lot of mud. And don't worry, that mess was totally included in one of the I-70 costumes.

In the summer of 2021, I-70 closed a number of times at Glenwood Canyon, due to burn scars from the 2020 wildfires causing extreme mudslides. While the July mudslides left some motorists stranded, fortunately there were no reported injuries. However, the hours-long detour route was a major pain in the neck.
