   I drive this road regularly in the winter for backcountry skiing and I truly think there are scarier roads. Sure there is a terrifying cliff but in general it's not bad if you simply drive to the conditions.

   The ten miles or so on the Aspen side of Independent Pass, when leaving town, is so much worse. It feels like a true single lane road at points with a huge cliff on one side that has the road caving in.

      Having parked on the side of it to go climbing on the other side of the river, I agree.

      TBH, I find driving on I70 in full conditions to be much scarier because of the other traffic and the speeds.
