Colorado is such a pretty place to visit. I love the Rocky Mountains

I used to live in Colorado Springs and I can tell you without a doubt that this is one of the most exhilarating drives that you can take. (Not to mention that it's stupid fun with a killer sports car!) And to answer previous questions, yes rocks fall there all of the time. they have now placed mesh "curtains" over the rocks so that when they fall, they don't go all over the road like they used to.

I've been watching more of these videos, they are addicting. It was great seeing all of the California segments, now I live in Colorado Springs... this is awesome.

Do rocks really fall off the cliff when driving?

@HardKore5250: They can, during inclement weather, especially after a heavy rainfall.

The roads in the Rockies are much higher than in the Alps, where they usually do not exceed 8,000 ft.

@aswchris: I would imagine that constructing roads through the Alps is a much more challenging endeavor, vs the Rockies, since the Rockies are more broad and gradual, vs. the jagged and almost razor-sharp mountains that defines the Alps.
