Climate read

Denver International Airport

snow, hail, wind, mountain-grade changes, and traction-law judgment calls

AWD SUV for mountain plans; compact or midsize for Denver-only errands

Mountain trips need a larger return buffer than city-only plans.

Return buffer

Add 45-75 minutes for snow, mountain-road cleanup, or shuttle queues.
