parking off campus
I am an incoming freshman. My parents and friends live about 1 hour and 30 mins from Mines in Loveland, and I would like to be able to visit them on some weekends. However, I've been made aware several times that getting a parking permit as a freshman is nearly impossible.
Yes, I am aware that I could apply several months after the semester starts and that may work, but I'd like to have access to parking from the very start of the semester as it is significantly more convenient.
So, to any current or former Mines students, does anyone know of any long-term parking off campus? I only need it for the weekends and occasional drives, so it's fine if it's a little ways off campus. I can use the ore-cart to get to it; I just need somewhere in Golden that I can park at (even if I have to pay)
