We live in Denver, but we don't go up into the mountains very often, and I've only driven across the Rockies on I-70 (coming from Las Vegas) once, and that was in the summer. We are planning a trip to Disneyland this Christmas, and have decided to drive. The shortest route is via I-70, and I'm a little anxious about going that way in the winter. We will be taking my DH's 4WD truck, but I swear the few times I've driven on I-70 I've seen signs about needing chains in the winter. I'd appreciate any advice or information on what it's like to drive that highway in the winter. We could take I-25 to I-40 and go south, but it's quite a bit further. But safety comes first...sorry to sound so paranoid! But I know I'll be doing at least half the driving, and I want to know what to expect. 2,436 posts, read 4,784,967 times 8,322 posts, read 21,099,484 times

Originally Posted by Sheridan1962 Mountain winter driving can be different from "flat land" winter driving. What usually trips drivers up is how to handle their vehicle on downgrades. As an example, I nearly always shift my 4WD vehicle OUT of 4WD on slick downgrades-because the front axle drag in 4WD can actually cause a loss of steering control when coming downhill. When you see a 4WD in the ditch in winter mountain driving conditions, it almost always is on a downgrade. Having 4WD is of zero benefit on downgrades, and many people don't compensate for that. They think that because they can fly upgrade at good speed in 4WD without slippage that they can cruise downgrade at the same speed. (This can also be a problem with front-wheel-drive cars if the driver is driving downgrade at excessive speed for conditions.) The other issue in Colorado mountain driving can be temperature. The slickest winter road conditions can occur when the ambient temperature is at or just below freezing--a frequent occurrence in Colorado in winter--especially around mid-day.

Combine that with Colorado's penchant for using mag chloride to melt snow and ice, and conditions can get real nasty when either temperature or mag chloride applications are sufficient to put a nice little patina of water on top of ice and snow and the road, but are not sufficient to completely melt the underlying snow and ice. If it then gets cold enough to refreeze that water into ice, things get even more "interesting." 1,179 posts, read 3,544,506 times I will definitely make note of all of this! I'll let DH handle the mountain driving, haha. 9,781 posts, read 15,913,621 times The thing I always go with for people not comfortable with it, it just watch the CDOT website for road conditions and the weather service for the forecast. CDOT has some nice webcams on I-70. If it's not clear and there is weather, save it for the next clear day. The times I would avoid going west is Friday night. I used to call them the Friday Night Maniacs as everyone raced up to the ski resorts, tailgating and driving like crazy, even in bad weather.
