Loveland Pass
If you're in a hurry you can always take the Eisenhower Tunnel on I-70 to get across the Continental
Divide. But that's not why you came to Colorado. Take your time. Get off the interstate.
Take US 6 over Loveland Pass. You won't be sorry.
On the south side of the pass US 6 sweeps around the side of Dillon Reservoir, up past the Keystone and
Arapahoe Basin ski areas, and then up via switchbacks to the top of the pass.
The north side of the pass peers down onto I-70 and is loaded with switchbacks
and brings you out past the Loveland ski area. A stop at the top offers views
in both directions as well as trails that lead to even better views.
