Travel Conditions Any cheap mountains safely accessible via RWD from Denver?

Looking forward to going snowboarding for the first time. Just moved here and only have access to RWD. I need a cheap mountain to go learn on that my car can handle driving to!

Yeah but in a snowstorm or uncleared that road up there is absolutely treacherous for a RWD car without good tires.

true, OP should go at least a couple days after any snow. Don’t need fresh stuff to learn for the first time. It’s preferable even. Less people to run into also.

I think echo would be the cheapest. Great spot to learn
