Discount Loveland tickets are available to passengers as well. For schedules and rates, please visit the Front Range Ski Bus webpage.
Mountain Driving
Colorado law requires you to buckle up and that all windows be completely snow/ice free so that full vision is possible. More distance between you and the vehicle in front of you is required when driving on snowy/icy roads. If your vehicle is not equipped with anti-lock brakes, you do not want to lock up your brakes – pump them. Avoid braking on curves and remember 4 wheel drive vehicles should follow all of these same basic rules.

Sun / UV Protection
Ultraviolet rays are more powerful at higher elevations. Since we are about 2 miles above sea level you will need goggles and sunglasses that have UV protection. Also, regardless of your skin color or complexion, everyone needs to wear sunscreen even on overcast days when ultraviolet rays still penetrate cloud cover. For more info visit Go Sun Smart.
