Description
Huge area on Vail pass for truckers and other overnight parking. Bathroom facilities and vending machines, as well as great views. Not quite Colorado camping, but if you’re making a long haul on I-70 it’s a great place for the night.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
1 hour parking enforced. Building and bathrooms open but in poor condition.
Report Check-InOne hour parking signs everywhere now, and the building is closed. Not sure if this is open anymore. We didn’t risk it, just went up the highway 10 minutes to the next spot.
Report Check-InGreat spot close enough to Vail ski resort to use as an overnight. Higher elevation than noted so very cold. The bathrooms were toasty warm. Lower level is mainly tractor trailers while the upper area is for cars/vans. Beautiful stars on a snowy night. Stayed two nights without issue. Arrived late and left early.
