Book before you go

Denver restaurants prefer reservations

What to pack

Think "Eddie Bower"

Yup, all the great outdoor clothes are essential here. Hoodies and Uggs will get you by until about November, then a nice puffy jacket and some snow boots (Sorels) will keep you dry and warm. Don't forget snow pants and sun glasses (sunblock too) for outdoor adventure.
