A rock slide came down on Hwy 5 just south of Barriere near McLure on Friday, July 22, just after noon.  An elderly couple were badly shaken after their car was spun around by a large boulder.   Traffic was backed up in both directions as only a single lane of alternating traffic was being let through.
