    Default Riding through Rockies

    My husband and I will be riding on I-70, staying overnight at a KOA outside of Denver, on our way to L.A. for Red Carpet Event. We'll be passing through June 20. Would it be wise for us to have our heated gear with us?

    Thanks!

    I would say no but you never know at 12500 elevation at Copper mountain and Eisenhower Tunnel. It has been in the forties and fifties at those passes. Go to Accu-weather or weather underground to see what the temps are in those areas. You can also go to www.cotrip.org to see road conditions. Good luck and safe travels

    I don't know about the rockies but it was snowing in the Sierras on Friday night and they are a LOT lower than the rockies.

    I don't know about heated gear but you should have a jacket liner at the least.
