A section of highway in the US state of Colorado has been totally destroyed
by two boulders "the size of a building", officials say.

The road was hit by a slide "consisting of dirt, rock and two huge
boulders", the Colorado Department of Transportation said.

Photos posted on its Facebook page show a trench 8ft deep (2.5m) left by
the boulders.

The road between the towns of Cortez and Telluride is closed indefinitely.
