Narrative:
On the arrival into den from rks, we were filed alpoe ramms 2 arrival. After alpoe it's the 096 degree radial to gll to intercept the dvv 311 degree radial. We were established on the 096 degree radial to gll, but flew through the dvv 311 degree radial by almost 10 mi. It was discovered when center advised us we flew through it and gave us a 195 degree heading to reintercept. I think the cause had to do with a little mental fatigue. We were running late all day, with no situation time on the ground. This was the 5TH out of 7 legs, and about 5.5 hours of flying. The event went without incident, and no other problems followed for the rest of the evening.
