I'll be going to Denver for the Eagles game against the Broncos, and my friends and I are going to spend a long weekend there. I have some questions for now, and no doubt will have more throughout the spring and summer.
~ Right now, we are planning on seeing more than Denver. Two places that have come up that seem to be a consensus are seeing Boulder and Golden. Do you agree or disagree? I am hoping to walk around both cities and take some pictures. We'll be doing the Coors brewery tour, and I'm going to suggest driving the Lariat Loop for the view of Denver. I think we'll just walk around Boulder. Any suggestions for either city that a bunch of guys (not just a geography nerd like me) would enjoy?
~ Are there any places outside of Denver, and so far Boulder and Golden,that we should take an afternoon or day to see? I was thinking Breckenridge for skiing, but the Eagles will play in September, so I think Breckenridge is out. How about Rocky Mountain National Park when we go to Boulder? Any mountain towns that can't be passed up on?
~ We will stay somewhere in Downtown Denver to have close access to LoDo and the football stadium. I've been reading a little on Denver sights and landmarks, but could use some help getting through clutter. What are the places to see in and near Downtown? I want to try and see the Capitol, Mint, Brown Palace, and that clock tower so far.
