Approaches into Denver

I've flown into KDEN (as SLF I hasten to add) on a handful of occasions in the last few years and I would be grateful to learn about approach procedures there.
My most recent visit was a couple of weeks ago and the aircraft was positioned R/H downwind for one of the 35s. As we seemed very close to the field on the downwind leg and the turn onto final didn't really include much of a base leg I assume that a visual approach was made. Would this be likely and is it a common procedure there? I was seated on the RHS of the a/c and having lost sight of the field on the turn to final approach, I'm not sure if we landed on 35L or 35R. Not quite as daft as it sounds as the ground contours made it difficult to see if there was another runway to the right of us after landing.
If anyone who can shed any light on this for me has a few moments to spare, I'd be grateful for your answers.
Thanks in anticipation.
