From Becca T. in 285 Traveler Group 10min ago
Accident going down the hill at the Canyon curve areas and on the opposite side heading up the hill, where the policeman is usually sitting is backed up as there’s several accidents and a jackknifed semi (in southbound lanes of Hwy 285) blocking the road police are trying to get up the hill but unfortunately are having a difficult time as traffic is impeding their ability to make it up the hill. Traffic coming up the hill is at a standstill just passed Morrison.
