Sinkholes have forced the closure of Vermillion Falls Road west of Maybell, a Bureau of Land Management news release states.
The BLM’s Little Snake Field Office announced the closure Thursday of Vermillion Falls Road 40 miles west of Maybell off of Colorado Highway 318. The release states that the road was closed because “subsurface erosion has resulted in deep sinkholes in the roadbed.”
The road remains open to foot traffic, the release states. For those that decide to walk to the falls, the Bureau of Land Management suggests calling the field office at 970-826-5000 for information on safe walking paths.
