Colorado Avalanche Closes U.S. 40

A massive snow avalanche on Saturday, described as 200 feet wide and 15 feet deep swept and buried cars around Berthoud Pass on U.S. 40, the route between Denver and Winter Park. U.S. 40 is remaining closed as of Saturday afternoon. After three consecutive weeks of major snow storms, Colorado is primed for avalanches. More details can be found here.

We are not aware of any decisions from hotels if you can't make your reservation in Winter Park, Steamboat Springs or other cities that you may have trouble getting to this weekend.
