Do not rent at DEN!!!! There are numerous neighborhood locations/store fronts throughout Denver (Avis, Hertz, Budget, Enterprise). Rates are half of those at DEN. One last tip, several of these locations are in Aurora in Hotels that have free airport shuttles (wink-wink; nudge, nudge). BTW the drive is easy. sans treacherous turns, etc.. BTW (x2) Black Hawk ranges between 8000-8500 feet in elevation. Highly suggest boning up on the subject if going for the first time (personally, Denver is nothing at 5000'; 8500 can be a whole different ball park).
