Honestly, to me, the most beautiful place around. There are several places on the Mesa where you can pull off, find some shade and take in the most spectacular views of the Grand Valley around. You may forget to eat, though, it's so beautiful up here.

Head to Highway 141 and enjoy some of the most amazing vistas around. Canyon country is home to beautiful colors, wonderful scenery and a lot of history. Get the kids together and make THIS picnic a learning experience they won't soon forget, and neither will you.

Obviously, there are hundreds of places where you can go and enjoy a nice picnic, have some fun and see a natural beauty that is Western Colorado. Share some of yours and let's put together a fun picnic experience!
