Written by Interstate 70 reopened in Colorado’s mountains on Tuesday night, about five hours after a snowy afternoon pileup involving approximately 70 vehicles. The series of crashes happened before 3 p.m. in the eastbound lanes, close to the Eisenhower Tunnel, and left one person seriously hurt and a handful of others with minor injuries. Snow fell on and off during the day in Clear Creek County’s higher elevations, but at the time of the crash a quick burst of heavy accumulation and strong winds led to dangerously slick road conditions.
For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
