Isn't that the highway that traverses Rocky Mountain National Park above
timberline?  It usually opens in June, some years mid-July.  So, if
traveling that way, one best check on its status.  One year my wife and I
got there on the day it opened (early July), made the trip over the
mountains, and found our campsite in the midst of a snow storm.  The
highway closed again that same day.
