Mesas as far as the eye can see.
Located at the northeastern edge of the Colorado Plateu, the Escalante Canyon is one of the most pristine climbing areas in all of canyonlands. 
The canyon was formed over 600 million years as Escalante Creek carved the 1,300 foot gorge. The Escalante Canyon has a long history of human occupation. The Ute Indians for years had made the North Fork of the Escalante River their winter home. Early settlers, attracted by the year-long water supply and sheltering cliffs, son pushed the Indians off the land. 
Many cattle outfits began using the canyon as their winter quarters. In 1886, John Musser took up residence in one of the first homesteads in the canyon where he operated the Musser Cattle Company. Over the years the company has acquired ranch after ranch so that now most of the grazing paddocks along the canyon's entire length are consolidated under Musser Cattle. 
The infamous Colorado Sheep War centered around cattlemen protecting their grazing land from flocks of hungry sheep. In the early 1900s, an unwritten code existed which relegated sheep to one side of the Gunnison River. When a swinging bridge was built over the river and sheep travelled across, the cattlemen retaliated by shooting hundreds of sheep. Two residents of the canyon died in the shootout. #historicalplace #rockclimbing #outdoorfun #outdoorlife #adventurelife #exploremore #hikinglife #wildlife

A .8 short hike 
Part of the colorado National monument , National Parks
Fruita Canyon Overlook is a lofty roadside viewpoint at the head of four-mile-long Fruita Canyon on the west side of Colorado National Monument. The fenced overlook is reached by a 90-foot hike on a gravel path from a small parking area on Rim Rock Drive that’s 0.4 miles west of the park visitor center. Fruita Canyon, which begins near the monument’s west entrance station, is a steep canyon lined with towering Wingate sandstone walls. Rim Rock Drive snakes up the canyon below before climbing its west side. The canyon floor is composed of 1.5-billion-year-old rock that is the remains of an ancient mountain range. The broad Grand Valley, carved by the Colorado River, opens beyond Fruita Canyon. The northern horizon is an escarpment of the dark Book Cliffs topped with the lighter-colored Roan Cliffs. Note Balanced Rock, a precarious pinnacle by the right canyon wall, above the road below the overlook. #monumentvalley #viewcolorado #colorado #exploring #mykindoffun #mykindofday

9,2/10 Wonderful! (24 avis)
As advertised. Drip coffee was actually drinkable compared to many places that provide coffee. Definitely would stay again. Only upgrade would be for them to have a hot tub!

8,4/10 Very Good! (1 006 avis)
Apres avoir encaissé le prix du séjour, l'hôtel s'est permis de prélever 18$ supplémentaires sur notre compte, sans explication ni justification. Impossible de s'y opposer sans faire opposition sur tous les paiements de la carte Visa. Pour 18$ cela ne vaut pas le coup mais c'est quand même une escroquerie. ...
