A Question for you Colorado planeteers...

dtebbe · 01-28-2007, 05:35 PM

I'm taking the folks on a road tour of Colorado for a day or two, before we hit the slopes for a few days of skiing (I always do this when we first get out there, to get acclimated to the elevation for a few days before we ski). Anyway, I was planning on taking them up Pikes Peak, to seven falls, and then to the royal gorge, and then leave the Royal Gorge area and drive towards Vail going Hwy 50 - Hwy 285 - Hwy 24. My question is, how long can I expect it to take to get from Salida to Vail? I've learned my lesson to ask these things before planning the trip....

TIA to all who respond...
