New avalanche mitigation equipment will soon be installed above three slide paths along US Highway 550's Red Mountain Pass.
The Colorado Department of Transportation announced on Wednesday that it will begin to install the equipment along US 550 between Silverton and Ouray on July 10. The remote avalanche control systems will be installed at the top of three known slide paths near the pass summit: Blue Point and Blue Willow slide paths near mile point 81, and near the Alpine Loop start at the Mother Cline slide path at mile point 89.
This equipment mixes oxygen and propane in nozzles at the top of these high-risk slide areas. When a person remotely explodes the mixture, the force is pointed down at the snow, loosening it and sending it careening downhill. The roadways below are always closed to the public during this work and only reopen once maintenance crews clear the road.
