Too often we just visit places, not experience them. For example, if you want to get the true New York City experience, you go to a Broadway show, or see the Statue of Liberty. But in Grand Junction, we have way cooler places than that. So in an effort to truly relay the Grand Junction experience, let me show you how.

Grand Junction sits in what is known as the Grand Valley, and if you get above it all, you get to see why. So gas up, grab some munchies and head up on the Grand Mesa. As you can see from just a photograph, the beauty is amazing, no matter what time of day it is. And from here you can see what else you might like to see. And nothing is quite like a drive over the Colorado National Monument.
