City advice

Getting around

Winter Weather

4-wheel drive is highly recommended. Our townhome is located close to 4800' elevation and frequently has snow / ice. We usually experience a 5+ degree temp difference between town and the mountain home. It can be nice in town, and snowing on the mountain!
