Enjoy big mountain skiing with a local vibe while avoiding a LARGE chunk of I70 traffic.....
However, we recommend two things to enjoy your experience:
1) Although Loveland has some great terrain, tons of snow, and incredible views it is also a cold mountain. It might be a better idea to go on a less windy, more sunny day : )
2) Even though you cut out a huge chunk of I70, we still recommend leaving before 6 am to avoid as much traffic as possible.
