I’m planning a road trip this weekend and would like to know what the road and driving conditions are supposed to be like on 76 between Denver and Grand Junction (specifically through the Rockies). Thanks!

    I-76 does not go to Grand Junction

    You would be thinking of I-70.

    As a former truck driver in Colorado, the mountains are very unpredictable. It could be sunny and warm on one side of a pass and slick and icy on the other. Colorado DOT does a good job of keeping the roads clear. If it is bad just take your time and no sudden movements on ice.

    You mean I-70 and then Highway 6, right?

    Had to check towns individually:

    Grand Junction:
    Glenwood Springs:

    I-76 does not go west through the whole state, it turns into I-70 at about wadsworth. You might see some snow when driving through the mountains.

    My crystal ball says…..Wait! I 76 ends at Wadsworth! You can´t get to Grand Junction on i76!

    And it’s looking pretty nasty here…I live about an hour west of Denver on I 70! You are looking at pretty cloudy, and possibly snowy weather on the passes!
