Denver Colorado | American auto transport destinations

The capital and most populous city in Colorado, Denver earns it's nickname "The Mile-High City" because it's official elevation is 5,280 feet above sea level, exactly one mile. Originally called Montana City, Denver was founded in 1858 as a mining town. While technically situated on the Great Plains, Denver has a distinct four season climate, made unpredictable by its close proximity to the Rocky Mountains to the west.

When it was founded, Denver was little more than a small collection of buildings on a long grassy plain with a few trees along the riverbank. Today, Denver has over 200 parks and 29 recreation centers, offering fresh air and open spaces among a busy urban environment. The economy of Denver is largely based on its position as a gateway and distribution center between the midwest and west. Also due to it's geographical location, Denver is the largest government center outside of Washington DC. Many federal agencies and defense and space agencies have large offices in Denver.

Denver has a reputation for being a very active outdoor city. The proximity to the mountains and generally sunny weather make Denver an excellent year-round destination for all sorts of recreation. Residents and visitors alike spend weekends in the mountains, skiing, hiking, climbing, kayaking, or camping. Downtown offers over 850 miles of bicycle lanes, along with over 200 parks. In sports, Denver is one of the few US Cities with teams from all four major US sports. These invlude the Denver Broncos of the NFL, the Colorado Rockies of MLB, Colorado Avalanche of the NHL, and the Denver Nuggets of the NBA. In addition to these teams, the National Lacrosse League is represented in Denver by the Colorado Mammoth and Denver Outlaws, Major League Soccer features the Colorado Rapids, and the Arena Football hosts the Colorado Crush.
