Keystone → UC Denver morning of 3 April

December 10, 2014 7:30 AM

I need to go from Keystone to the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus the morning of 3 April 2015. So far, my best option seems to be to take an early morning Colorado Mountain Express shuttle to Denver International Airport, and then take a taxi to UC Denver. The first CME shuttle that goes directly downtown doesn't arrive until 12:30 p.m. I don't want to rent a car. Are there better options?

If you want to go the CME route, you could catch your ride to the airport the night before. CME is the largest mountain shuttle operator, but Summit Express, Powderhound, and Peak 1 are also options -- I'm not sure what their schedules look like though. You could also try more expensive black-car options if timing is more important than money. Aside from those, renting a car is the last real option.

I didn't think about going the night before. Last ride leaves 7:25 p.m. or earlier, which is too early for me. Summit Express and Peak 1 seem to only go to the airport as well. Powderhound might be able to do it, but their rate is $300.

Thanks for the suggestions, though!

I ended up booking an early morning shuttle to the airport, and a colleague will pick me up there.
