Four Ways to Go Grand This Summer.  View in Browser Grand Junction stands at the intersection of nature’s most majestic terrain. Discover where the mountains meet the high desert, experience the convergence of two mighty rivers, and traverse deep canyons and lush forests. Beyond the wilderness, embrace Grand Junction’s naturally artistic spirit and farm-to-table (and farm-to-glass!) culinary experiences. Where Life Leads Nature Plays Favorites Experience Colorado National Monument, a well-kept secret, where sheer sandstone cliffs rise dramatically over the flourishing valley below. Find yourself awestruck by the largest flat-top mountain in the world, the Grand Mesa, bursting with over 300 pristine alpine lakes, and an array of wildlife abounds. Rivers, Orchards and Lavender Grand Junction rests at the intersection of the Colorado and Gunnison Rivers. The fertile grounds and temperate climate surrounding these powerful rivers have given rise to blooming vineyards, fruit orchards and lavender farms — a perfect setting to gather and sip on a local varietal while surrounded by nature. Take Part in the Arts Take a walk through downtown Grand Junction’s Art on the Corner and view more than 115 sculptures and murals while popping into the galleries and boutiques that frame the wide tree-lined sidewalks. From live performances at the historic Avalon Theatre to experiential art shops, creativity is encouraged and celebrated in Grand Junction. Hit the Trail The expansive Grand Junction area boasts over 1.5 million acres of public land that comprises 76% of the county — an area larger than Rhode Island and Delaware combined. Hike the Crag Crest Trail or venture off-road through Rabbit Valley down to the Colorado River. From hiking in dense forests to mountain biking in the serpentine desert canyons, thousands of miles of uncrowded trails await you. View in Browser | Unsubscribe
