There is a highway patrolman that stakes out I70 just west of De Beque. The speed limit drops for west bound just west of De Beque, and he makes a living nailing drivers that don't slow down from 75 to 60 MPH. Heading east the canyon flattens out and you will have this urge to accelerate above 70. The road is built for 75 MPH and it's tempting, but DO NOT speed just west of De Beque. My son lives in GJ so I travel to/from GJ with some regularity -- that state rod is legendary with folks that know the road.
Thanks, that is the warning I'm looking for.

No need for gloves, been fixed and hadda blood test......
