As suggested I-70 is the easiest and really not bad -- It's an Interstate! -- So the grades are not bad and the road is safe -- just need to take your time and enjoy the drive.

Vail is nice and the Over Under drive along the Colorado River as you get to Glenwood Springs is one of the most beautiful Interstate drives in the Country.
