Colorado National Monument, Colorado Campsite Photos
Favorite Sites: 3, 20, 26, 35.
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. You can experience sheer-walled, red rock canyons along the twists and turns of Rim Rock Drive, where you may spy bighorn sheep and soaring eagles.

Colorado National Monument - Park Travel Review
Colorado National Monument is located in Western Colorado, near the Utah border. The Rim Rock Drive is about 25 miles long and has many stops and pullouts along the way. This was our first trip to the area and we were delighted to spend some of our time there.
During our day int eh park, we took in several of the short trails and got an overview of some of the formations and monuments in the park. A favorite is Independence Monument. We got an overlook of it from Otto's Trail. I ti the track that John Otto took on his first accent of the Monument.
More information on John Otto from the NPS Site: Otto spearheaded fundraising campaigns, collected signatures for petitions, and penned newspaper editorials and endless letters to Washington politicians in support of national recognition for the ancient canyons and towering monoliths of his adopted home.
We had a wonderful time exploring Colorado National Monument and the area around Fruita, Colorado. This NPS site is a Must do if you are traveling on I-70.

Colorado National Monument (USA) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Colorado National Monument in The USA.
On the western edge of the state of Colorado and close to the city of Grand Junction and the village of Fruita, is the Colorado National Monument, one of the most fascinating areas in the United States Of America.From the twenty three mile long Rim Rock Drive there is a magnificent view across the eroded rock walls of the mighty canyons. Fir, juniper and mahogany trees form the main vegetation on the high plateaus that are located above the sparsely covered canyons. The amazing rock walls plunge down almost three hundred metres to the bottom of the dried out canyons below that are dominated by typical desert vegetation. There is a kind of magic here, a special feeling: and it is easy to become enchanted by this truly amazing region that has been sculpted by the natural forces of nature.

I made this trip in January 2018. Video shot with a Brinno TLC-200 Pro time-lapse camera mounted on my roof with a homemade magnetic case. I travel with two Brinno cameras - one facing forward, the other in reverse. Sometimes the reverse camera captures better video (fewer raindrops and bugs hit the rear-view lens).
