Most AMAZING sunrise from Red Canyon Overlook the other morning. What a beautiful place we live in.
Easy pull-out with a beautiful view of the canyon framing Grand Junction in the diatance.
My favorite thing is to look at the lights over the city!!! At this view all is quit, air is fresh, and OH MY LORD!!!! LOOK AT THAT VIEW!!!! 🫠🫠🫠🫠🥰🥰🥰🥰
Make sure to catch this view right off the road. Awesome views of the canyon.
Beautiful view of the Red Canyon, and Grant Junction off in the distance. I liked how it seemed to line up almost perfectly with the railroads running through that city.
Another remarkable thing here to consider... if you were a raindrop and fell less than a half-mile away into Ute Canyon, you'd take an entirely different route to the Colorado River, flowing in several miles downstream from where water coming through Red Canyon dumps in.

I liked this spot. Definitely a couple-hours-past-sunrise spot. Really cool to see the geometric straight angles the river makes. Has Grand Canyon vibes to it.
