Re: Sniktau
Parking conditions? Assuming that you are starting at the top of Loveland Pass you will park at the normal parking area right at the summit of the pass on the east side.
It may depend on what day you are planning. If it is a weekend day there may not be any space due to all of the skiers and snowboarders riding the pass. If the top is full go down the west side and there is another pullout area that may be open. It is probably only 1/4 of a mile or so from the top.
Make sure that you look for the parking signs at any of these pullouts. If you don't park in the proper places you may get ticketed. They have been enforcing the parking regulations in the last few years because of people parking on the shoulder or close to the driving lanes. Loveland Pass is a major truck route for the hazardous material trucks that can't use the Eisenhower/Johnson Tunnels.
