National Monument
Colorado

Trip Planning logo

Colorado National Monument preserves one of the grand landscapes of the American West. But this treasure is much more than a monument. Towering monoliths exist within a vast plateau-and-canyon panorama.

John's Comments Great time to spend half a day viewing the escarpment with various formations that are now known by their own names. One could get quite close to the ledges and there are many places to stop and view and take pictures.
John`s Recollections - 2009

The 20+ mile drive along the escarpment in Colorado National Monument provides many opportunities for scenic picture taking and views of Grand Junction below. Many of the formations have specific names that have been given over years of history.
