How is the highway 40 from I-70 to Grand Lake. Mountain passes and curves?
Beautiful drive and Great Road.
Has Curves and Berthoud Pass is a real one.
Options are to do Trail Ridge through RMNP - on RT 34 - Narrow Curvy and again Beautiful Drive if you go early you will miss most of the traffic, and if you go late Good Luck:)
One more option is the I-70 to Silverthorne, using Eisenhower tunnel, then taking RT 9 North to Kremmling then on up to Grand Lake.
Again Beautiful - easy - as you did the Mountains on I-70 - is the route recommended to those who prefer the easy route to drive and need/want to avoid the Passes.
So there you go, three options, all, because they are in Colorado, are just Beautiful Drives, so take your Pick or drive all three, which would be my Recommendation, then let us know what you thought about each.
Best of Luck,
