Traveling to Summit CountyIf you are coming to the high country you need to decide on your mode of transportation. If flying into DIA many people opt to take the airport shuttles. These shuttles will pick you up at the airport and drop you right at your vacation rental. Renting a car is not a necessity as there is free transportation throughout the county and also a free bus to Vail If you do decide to rent a car make sure you are extra cautious driving on I-70. The road winds through the mountains and there are many curves that come up unexpectedly. Also, remember to plan your drive back to the airport. If you are traveling back on a Sunday, the traffic on I-70 is very heavy. If the weather is bad it is even worse!! It is a good idea to leave with plenty of time to spare. Also, check the weather report for the day you leave. If a storm is predicted you may want to alter your return trip as parts of I-70 may close due to inclement weather. |
