Can your RWD w/ winter tire handle snow covered rockies?

I'm moving to Colorado soon and I'm looking forward to driving on the rockies and snowboarding! I'm currently looking to upgrade to m235i or m240i from 228i, and I have this dilemma. Can I really go with RWD route and feel safe driving up to the ski resorts? I've been rocking winter tires in the winter and I've been driving past sedans, SUVs, and trucks on snow days in Illinois. But the roads are usually flatter and snow isn't completely covering the roads most of the time, like it would driving up to the resorts. I would much rather have an RWD than an AWD, but if I'm going to be driving up the mountains pretty much every other weekend, I think it might just be worth going with the x-drive. What do you think?
