It's deja vu all over again.  Year after year after year.

Breckenridge’s traffic problem stems from the massive I-70 pileup of skiers and snowboarders trying to get to surrounding resorts. Breckenridge town council members are very aware of this issue. According to Summit Daily News, the Breckenridge Town Council is currently researching innovative ways to combat the town’s overcrowding.  

If you want to ski the biggest and best resorts, you must suck it up and spend quality time with your car. Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid the traffic.  [emphasis added]
