Nothing pleases me more than driving out West, in this case Southwest Colorado, and accidentally discovering sights that I've never heard of before. In this case, the happy accident was coming upon Colorado National Monument.
Colorado National Monument is located near Grand Junction and Fruita, CO. The Monument was established in 1911 and consists of 32 square miles.
