Search flights from DEN to LBL
Front Range
Panoramic views of the snow-capped Rocky Mountains stretching south toward the New Mexico border.
Pikes Peak
The most famous 'fourteener' in the region is clearly visible to the southwest shortly after departure.
High Plains Prairie
The dramatic transition from the urban sprawl of Denver to the vast, open shortgrass prairie of the West.
Arkansas River Valley
The winding path of the Arkansas River as it carves through the arid landscape of southeastern Colorado.
Sit on the right side and look toward the rear of the aircraft shortly after takeoff to catch the best angle of the mountains. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the eastern faces of the Rockies, providing high-contrast views of the peaks.

DEN Architecture
A clear view of the iconic white peaked roof of the Jeppesen Terminal during the initial climb.
Agricultural Circles
Extensive displays of center-pivot irrigation creating a green and gold geometric patchwork across the plains.
Prairie Wind Farms
Clusters of massive wind turbines harvesting energy along the Colorado and Kansas border region.
Rural Grid Towns
Perfectly square town layouts characteristic of the American Midwest dotting the expansive landscape.
The left side is best for observing the 'patchwork quilt' of the High Plains. In the late afternoon, this side is shaded, which reduces glare for photography of the circular irrigation patterns and small prairie settlements.
