We topped out at the Eisenhower tunnel at 11,158ft just before descending to the Denver metro area - I couldn’t quite work out the logic - “alright guys, 11,158ft is enough climbing, it’s now time to go through the mountain”

Thanks. At least you got a taste of Utah and Colorado. The run from Eisenhower down I-70 to Denver is something. Very steep and everyone hauls ass. It must be wild in the winter with all the day skiers - and icy roads.
