Vail is high in the mountains, and therefore experiences pleasantly warm summers
and cold winters. The temperature rarely rises above freezing from Thanksgiving
to late February. The town of Vail receives an average of 200 inches of snowfall
per season, with even more in the surrounding mountains. Roads may occasionally
close. In summer, the thermometer can reach the 80s, but more often hovers around
the low to mid-70s. Combined with brisk mountain breezes, this makes summers
refreshing and cool.
