We're in Colorado! Just over the border from Utah, rising thousands of feet above the towns of Grand Junction and Fruita, lies the 23-mile Rim Rock Drive in Colorado National Monument. Unlike the sprawling Canyonlands National Park, this drive packs a big punch in a few miles. We spent the day exploring several different canyons, with a variety of unusual formations, and enjoying close-up views of wildlife, before settling down in the park's mile-high campground to watch the sunset.
