Frisco is “bag less”
Grocery stores in Frisco and other parts of Summit county do not use plastic bags, or charge 25cents per bag. Natural grocers has boxes for groceries. Please plan accordingly.
Qué empacar
Wear layers
Colorado weather changes quickly. Generally a good rule is pack layers. Down jackets are great in the winter, hats are a must, and I never leave home without a jacket.
