Getting around
Take Public Transportation
Take public transportation like buses and light rail or Rideshare services. You will avoid difficult parking spots. And not have to stress about the traffic
Ways to save
Take the train from the airport
Take the train from the airport to union station. Much cheaper than a Ride-share or a taxi from the airport.
What to pack
Layers
Bring layers to Colorado. One day it could be sunny and 70; the next day it could be a blizzard
