Is there something you're looking to do in Denver proper? People aren't going to tell you to avoid Denver because it's unsafe, it's just not particularly amazing. Like, why are you coming to Colorado? Towns like Boulder, Estes Park are going to give you a little more touristy "in the mountains" kind of vibe. But they aren't really IN the mountains so much as next to them. Further west on I70 is going to get you IN the mountains, as in surrounded by them. Hiking is going to be more of a summertime activity, outside of the front range - so Boulder, Golden, it's going to be covered in snow so you're in snowshoeing territory. No guarantees Boulder and the rest of the front range aren't going to be covered in snow then too. it just snowed but it's all melted now. It's going to be snowy or warm until April, so who knows what the rest of the month is going to bring- could be anything. More on reddit.com

Very cute! It's kind of on the other side of downtown from Guard and Grace, but I like The Oxford, their martini bar is amazing and their décor is beautiful. Very art deco. More on reddit.com

Lived in Denver since 2015. Find myself going downtown for specific events (concerts, sports, festivals, etc) but the actual city doesn’t have much to do for tourists. West into the mountains, if that’s your thing, is a much better bet for outdoorsy. Depends what you’re looking to do but happy to answer questions. More on reddit.com
