Amazing Photos of the Colorado National Monument During Winter

The Colorado National Monument rises from the valley floor setting Grand Junction's beautiful backdrop. Most of us enjoy the view from afar, especially during the winter months -- because who wants to leave the comfort and warmth of their house. Don't fret, that's what the interwebs are for.

Taking a drive through the Monument during summer months can be harrowing, add a bit of snow and ice, and now you're in for a drive of a lifetime. No, thank you. Thanks to Instagram, we can check out the gorgeous winter scenery of the Colorado National Monument right from our couch.
