It’s also a good reminder to motorists that yes, stuff happens.

“this geological masterpiece that we’re calling Memorial Rock”

I say we should call it Pelosi’s Head.

I suggested this very thing a few weeks ago.
Sometimes, you have to go with events as they happen.
To remove that monster would cost too much municipal money and too many man hours. There are other issues going on far more pressing. This is called making Lemondade from Lemons.
Some may even call it an Act of God.

Very confusing. I ask the Uber driver to take me to Boulder and I wind up here.

We are such an ‘advanced’ civilization that we find we don’t know how to easily remove such a large rock, yet ancient civilizations found it no problem to move thousands of them ,which were even larger, many miles.

Cost to build highway around rock: $1.3 MILLION

Cost to break up rock & haul away: $200,000...

Spend 6.5 times to build new road & that is an advantage?

I guess my bookkeeping skills would have said NO WAY we are building new road.

Politicians keep spending taxpayer $$$$ with no restraint at all.

It’s nothing a little tactical nuke couldn’t handle. How close did they say the nearest town is?

Thanks for the post Red Badger...

What is missing is what kind of rock is this... Igneous, basalt or granite; Sedimentary... shale, or ?. If sedimentary, what is name of formation that it came from?
If this huge boulder weathered out, there are probably others waiting for their opportunity to roll down the mountain.

I am glad that there was no traffic on the hwy when this guy came rolling by.
