I was out there today. Hadn't been down that road in a month even though I live in Woodland Park. The section starts just after Rainbow falls and continues North past the turn into Westcreek.

It looks like they just filled all the cracks in a 6 mile section with the black goo. CDOT had a sign up warning motorcycles. The stuff was pretty wiggly feeling and creeped me out.

This might be old news, if so please disregard.
