I wonder how much good and/or damage you would do if you went up on the top of the hill where there are huge slides of rock. A little pushing/hauling, a little slipping, and there's tons of rock at the bottom of the hill.
Some of it is bound to stay on the roadbed!

Seriously though, there are huge bowls of loose granite upslope between the tunnels. It seems like a little work could make it available to a backhoe/loader on the roadbed.
