Editing Vail, Colorado (section)

===Highways===
[[Interstate 70 in Colorado|Interstate 70]] runs east–west through the middle of Vail and is the only road to or from Vail, with exits at East Vail, at the base of Vail Pass, the town of Vail, and West Vail. From the east, the highway comes from [[Denver]], {{convert|97|mile}} away, passes through [[Eisenhower Tunnel]] and over the [[Continental Divide]], by-passing [[Loveland Pass]], and over Vail Pass, dropping down into Vail Valley. To the west, it meets [[U.S. Highway 24 (Colorado)|U.S. Highway 24]] at Dowd Junction, passes through [[Avon, Colorado|Avon]], [[Edwards, Colorado]], and [[Eagle, Colorado|Eagle]], through [[Glenwood Canyon]] traveling and on to [[Grand Junction, Colorado|Grand Junction]], and reaches [[Utah]], where it ends at the intersection with [[Interstate 15 in Utah|Interstate 15]].

In West Vail, [[U.S. Route 6 in Colorado|U.S. Route 6]] (which still exists as a service road between East Vail, Vail, and West Vail) merges with I-70 at Dowd Junction. I-70 roughly follows the original Highway 6 route until the two highways diverge again in [[Silverthorne, Colorado|Silverthorne]], {{convert|31|mile}} to the east.
