I drove a semi to Denver three times every two weeks... It does get nasty in the winter. They do not use salt, just sand. Before I had ever been out there I pictured Denver being up on a hill. Actually, it sets in a bowl of sorts. I have left Denver with the weather in the 60's, drove two hours east and hopped out of the truck in -0. The factors you mentioned are part of the reason I like driving out there...along with the scenery, nothing will make you feel so small. It really puts things in perpective just how minute we are in the scheme of things.
