BREAKING NEWS:
I-70 is a shitshow in the summer too.

They seem to shut down Vail Pass if more then in years past, being that people can't make it over VP without getting suck,crashing,and basicly driving like fucktards what makes them think they can fuck up my commute by going around via 24/91? I think tonight I need to start running them off the road on Battle Mountain. Not you Montana!

[Hott Butt Mud]

Last time I did the 24/91 alt route there were so many fucktards with Cali plates who were burning up there bald tires going 3mph with the pedal to the metal! It was shitty and took 2 hours. Never again. I will always just wait now.

I go the back way if it's closed...always. It's an extra 45 minutes and you can always find a spot to pass the slow ones. Despite all the back and forth I do, I've only been forced to go around 2 or 3 times. I did have to stop at CMSummits house once for an hour or so due a wreck in 10 mile canyon. (knock on wood)

I'm not butthurt about I70

[JoeStrummer]

I am not here to bitch about I70 but to PRAISE her. Earlier today I was half-assedly working while getting occasional CDOT updates about stop n go traffic and hour delays. My plan was to leave at noon and do an afternoon tour of Bert. All gear was in the rig. But the I70 shitshow gave me pause and so I took a nap and listened to the Jesus and Mary Chain instead.

Had I70 flowed properly, I would now be stuck in this shit. . .

I must give the lady credit where credit is due. I will not be sitting in my car for 4 hours waiting for snowplows, or looking for some overpriced shitbox motel in Granby because of I-70.

God Bless You I-70.

[WTF is dat]

Floyd hill is a shitshow currently and we are now moving nicely at the twin tunnels on our way up to vail

[The SnowShow]

I feel like a whole ton of fuckwads moved here this past year bc I70 is a complete mess anytime it snows. Winter tires and AWD you idiots!!

[Like a Boss]

I live west of Vail Pass, so I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. I-70 is amazing! Wait, I just turned this into yet another mountain town vs. city brewhaha that flares up like a herpes outbreak every few weeks or so. So sue me.

[Woodrow Woodpecker]

Here's one: CO has more natural gas coming out it's ass than just about anywhere...
If thee almighties in A$$$$pain & Vile can heat their driveways & streets, why can't CO tax the hell outta gas Co's & heat I-70 where it counts?

.......... Oh, wait!..... nevermind

[Crampedon]

Does this count?

Does your car beep?
