Hey fish! Headed to Denver, Co (technically golden) in a few weeks. Would love some suggestions. Am a Florida girl so driving in snow is not something I have a ton of practice doing.

Rent a car with AWD or 4WD. Go slow. Ask locals or your client for advice. Or, have someone else in your team with more winter experience do the driving. (I had a similar situation in MSP in January years ago, and did all this.) Get a good scarf! Enjoy.

Golden is cool to walk thru. Go to Breckinridge and or Vail if the roads are clear. Go to Red Rock.

On ice, it don’t matter if you have 2WD or 4WD drive. Check the weather constantly and try not to drive if it’s snowing heavily. I also bought a set of spikes that can be attached to the tires just in case I get stuck on the snow and need a little grip to get out. You can find them in Amazon. Avoid the zip tie ones.

Question on UK visa-

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
