Colorado National Monument, as a graduation present from my father. We went to Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and Yellowstone National Park. Besides all the traveling and using up all my camera memory, Colorado and Yellowstone stole my soul. I can’t I wait to go back. ;)

Colorado National Monument
Colorful canyons, cliffs, and other rock formations tower 2,000 feet over the Colorado River on this part of the spectacular Colorado Plateau. Drive or bike the 23-mile Rim Rock Drive for scenic views from the top of the canyons or hike among the 40 miles of trails to get a closer look at some of the park's sculpted rocks, wildlife, and desert plants.
State(s): Colorado
Established: 1911
