Additional Tips to Keep in Mind:
Always check your vehicle's maintenance before embarking on a road trip through the Rocky Mountains. Make sure your tire pressure is correct, brakes are functioning properly, and oil levels are adequate.
Keep an eye out for snow-covered roads and four-wheel drive vehicles. It may take longer to stop or turn in snowy conditions, so increase following distance and be prepared for unexpected situations.
Be mindful of wildlife, including elk, moose, and bison. Keep a safe distance from these animals, as they can charge if felt threatened.
