Was taking a snack before heading to get the bus to reach Boulder.Start talking with my soon-to-be driver.
I looked too tired apparently, so she offered me a ride.
Had much fun with her, we hanged out in the following days and she became a friend!

Small town, with a good spot to hitchhike on the road and asking directly at the gas station.Got offered a ride by someone who stopped at the gas station and saw me first with my sign. He has a hitchhiker friend so it motivates him to stop and help.
Offered to hang out in Denver while I'm around.
There's a jail few miles up north, might reduce chance of rides from local or depending on your looks.

The on ramp here was pretty dead, most of the traffic is going north and then either headed east or west along the 80. Eventually walked on the interstate and flew a sign there. More traffic will see you, but speed limit in this area was 70-75, so I wouldn't expect many people to stop here. The couple that picked me up said they drove past at first and then decided to come back around and pick me up. Got a straight ride to Denver though. Can't remember how long it took as I was walking along the interstate awhile before actually flying. Maybe 20-30-ish minutes actively flying?―Sara11us

Easy spot to catch a ride into Denver. Beautiful drive coming down the mountain on 40 and then 70―Mossythemuse
