Help with Public/Ground transportation to get to Red Rocks from airport
|
I just got hired at an airline, and thus have flight benefits. I'd like to plan out a trip that would allow me to fly from Minnesota (MSP) to Vegas and climb in Red Rocks. |

Taxi... Hitch Hike... or make friends with a local? |

If you get off the bus near Desert Rock Sports on Charleston, you might find a ride AND a partner. |

Zach - Perhaps you are aware...maybe not. The 206 bus does not launch from the airport. You will have to take another bus to catch the 206. There are a couple of options, but your best and quickest way to get to west side Whitey World and beyond is to catch the Westcliff Airport Express at McCarren. |

when? |

When we were there a few months ago we rented a jeep liberty for $20 a day... pretty crazy how cheap rentals are so thats an option. Like everyone else said red rocks would be hard to do without a car its kinda spread out. |

I'm heading out in a few weeks and the best rate i've been able to find on a small SUV is 30.00 per day plus fees. |

Thanks for all the replies! |

Car rentals fees vary wildly based on the percentage of cars of a certain class they have reservations for - it really doesn't matter at all which company. Its always worth monitoring as many rental companies as possible as far in advance as possible. |
