Day 19 - Grand Junction, Colorado & Price, Utah


We had a good day looking around Grand Junction and then drove through the Colorado National Monument. The National monument is 23 miles of twisting roads through scenery created by millions of years of erosion to create rocks that are spires, domes and valleys. With the distant ranges it created a spectaclar drive and as the Americans say it was awsome. The late afternoon sun enhanced already rich colours and the colours were glorious.


It is a great place for mountain bikers as are so many of the places we have visited over the last week. We left Grand Junction late and as we crossed over the state line to Utah drove into a massive storm. It was difficult drive as it was so black so decided to stay in Price Utah.
