Denver to the mountains

Aspen

In winter, the usual approach from Denver follows I-70 west to Glenwood Springs, then Highway 82 up the Roaring Fork Valley. Independence Pass closes seasonally. If your itinerary shows the pass in winter, plan around the Glenwood Springs route.

Check your lodging address before booking. A hotel in downtown Aspen and a condo in Snowmass Village have different drop-offs.

Snowmass Village

If your reservation says Snowmass, use the Snowmass Village lodging address when requesting a ride. For Base Village stays, ask the property which entrance serves your building. A ski-in address on a trail map may differ from the guest check-in entrance.

Traveling with skis or boards? Include the number of gear bags and suitcases when you request your transfer.

Vail

From Denver, I-70 heads west over Vail Pass. Snow or a closure on the pass can affect the return trip to DEN, so share your departure flight time when planning pickup.

Staying in Vail Village or Lionshead? Ask your hotel for its vehicle entrance. A property name and arrival address are more useful to your chauffeur than a pin on a pedestrian plaza.

Breckenridge

The usual Denver route leaves I-70 at exit 203 in Frisco and follows Highway 9 south into Breckenridge. For a resort stay, give the building or lodge name as well as the street address. For a rental, check whether the key pickup and the property are at different locations.
