But Wait, There's More! (Because There Always Is)
Of course, most of us aren't crows (though their sense of direction is undeniably impressive). If you're planning on driving, you're looking at a journey closer to 1,776 miles (get ready to sing a little "American Pie" along the way). That translates to roughly 28-32 hours of windshield time, depending on your need for bathroom breaks and detours to explore quirky roadside attractions (alien museums, anyone?).
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.
Fear not, intrepid traveler! There are other options. You can fly (a mere 6-ish hours), take the train (think epic trainspotting opportunities!), or even, for the truly adventurous, attempt a cross-country bike ride (though we recommend packing plenty of sunscreen and snacks).
So, You Say You Want to Move to Denver? How To FAQs:
- How to survive a road trip from NYC to Denver? Pack snacks, playlists, and a co-pilot who can tell bad jokes.
- How to avoid getting lost on the way? Invest in a good atlas (or at least a phone charger for your GPS).
