In Colorado, an avalanche came down the highway with cars. VIDEO
Motorists got an incredible shake due to the avalanche that fell on the highway in Colorado.
Jacob Easton traveled through Ten Mile Canyon on the 70 highway near Breckenridge when he videotaped an avalanche coming down from the mountain.
“All of a sudden, me and my dad saw a big white cloud to our left and we immediately knew it was an avalanche,” he told FOX31.
The video shows Easton stopping the car and waiting for the snow to come down from the mountain. During this period, visibility was equated to zero, until the snow and trash settled down.
"It's exciting, but it's pretty alarming because you don't know when it's going to stop," Easton said.
Another video posted on Twitter by the Colorado Avalanche information center showed an avalanche from a different angle.

The Colorado Department of Transportation reported that there was not a lot of snow on I-70, so it did not pose a threat to drivers on the road.
In addition, state officials reported that it was a real avalanche, and not controlled by the descent of snow from the mountain.
This avalanche became one of several in Colorado last weekend after a heavy snowfall in the region. In the districts of Weil and Summit, avalanche warnings were in effect until the morning of March 4.
In Frisco 3 March, another avalanche was recorded, due to which the affected part of the road was closed for three hours.
A video shot by another motorist shows the moment when the second avalanche swallowed part of the highway.
