RV Living | Grand Mesa | Grand Junction, Colorado
At 11,332 feet we visited the largest flat topped mountain in the world! We had never been to Grand Mesa before, so while we were staying in Grand Junction we decided that's where we should go on our Sunday drive. It was breathtaking!

Grand Mesa, Colorado. Vega Lake
Grand Mesa was all new to me. Never had I heard of the place and what pleasant surprise. The mesa is up around 10,000 feet and the views are something to see. Lots of trails, lakes, 4x4 trips, fishing, camping and just about any other outdoor activity you can think of. Thank you Jim Jordan for the invitation.

Colorado's Grand Mesa
Grand Mesa pix taken by Rob & Sandy Vanya in May of 2009. Grand Mesa is the largest flat-top mountain in the nation. It was late May, and we encountered a snow storm & temps in the low 30s & a snow plow clearing ice off of the roads. The lakes on the Mesa were partially frozen over. The Colorado uplands are a lot different than the Texas Gulf Coast where we live.
Grand Junction to Grand Mesa Byway: 1of2 Colorado Drivelapse
This drive begins in Grand Junction, Colorado on Interstate 70, headed east. At exit 49, CO Rte. 65 begins, headed south across the Grand Mesa National Forest. This video covers the first half of the drive across Grand Mesa -- look for Part 2 to complete the drive!
Colorado's Grand Mesa, Summer 2012
The starting footage places you over seventy miles away looking across the Uncompahgre Plateau. Not only does it rise over a mile higher than the valley but its five hundred square mile surface area makes it the most visible mountain in the area. The segments looking down from the mountain were recorded around Land's End Observatory and its overlooks in July as well as a biking excursion on the Flowing Park loop trail one month later. I've replaced the original audio with Big Country by Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer and Mike Marshall as well as Magic #9 by Infamous Stringdusters.
Art on the Corner, Downtown Grand Junction, Colorado
grandjunctionhomesguide.com The tree lined, pedestrian friendly streets with the outdoor sculptures is Grand Junction's most popular attraction. The Art on the Corner project was one of the first of its kind in the country and has grown every year. Today, Art on the Corner features more than 100 sculptures in bronze, stone and steel. Many of the pieces are available for purchase and the others remain in a permanent collection. It's not just locals doing the collecting, people and institutions from throughout the country collect the pieces. Art on the Corner received an Excellence in Public Art award from the International Making Cities Livable organization in 1998 and influenced many people in other towns to create a similar project
Sandra Mathewson with RE/MAX 4000 takes you on a tour of Downtown Grand Junction.
ATVing Vega State Park and Grand Mesa
Vega State Park is a magical place to ATV. Hundreds of miles of trails and you can ATV from the campground. This is my first attemp to do a video and I know it is a little shakey and editing could be better. I hope to be more skilled on my next try.

Grand Mesa August 20, 2016
I got my first opportunity to fly off the front of the Grand Mesa in Western Colorado, the world's largest flat top mountain. Learned a lot about high altitude flying. (About 10,000 feet above sea level.) And I caught a glimpse from the air of a waterfall that I didn't know was there, so of course I had to go investigate. In about a month, I'll definitely go back to those falls for sunset when the sun is coming right down the canyon.

Snowmobiling Grand Mesa Colorado 2019
Out for a rip with friends on Grand Mesa
Grand Mesa Color Sunday Drive - Road Trippin' in Colorado
ROAD TRIPPIN’ - **Suggest you watch in FULL SCREEN for best view** Feelin’ a little nostalgic that I’m coming up on my 5 yr anniversary of moving to Colorado from San Diego. It was a dream I’ve had since I was 8 yrs old after visiting a dude ranch in Colorado and I announced “I’m moving to Colorado when I grow up!! I’m a country girl trapped in the city.”
These pics were taken while driving up & over the Colorado Grand Mesa on “Color Sunday” just 2 weeks after moving here in 2010. The slideshow is to give you a sense of what it looks & feels like from the front seat of a Mustang convertible. I hope you enjoy it.
95% of these pictures were taken from behind the wheel of my ’07 Mustang GT convertible while rolling down the scenic highway (hence some blur at times). That’s the great thing about having a convertible, there’s no roof to obstruct the views. (By the way if you’re interested, my Mustang is for sale, has low miles and is in excellent condition!) I have become quite proficient at driving with one hand (or one eye) and shooting pictures & Flip cam movies with the other (especially if I rest my hand on top of my windshield). This is NOT something I’d recommend in California but while country driving in Colorado the traffic is nearly non existent most of the time.
What used to be called “Color Sunday” has now become an entire “Color Weekend” celebrated on the Colorado Western Slope. To enjoy this official scenic byway, travel I-70 then keep an eye out between Debeque and Grand Junction to take exit 49 off the I-70 and travel South on Hwy 65 toward Powderhorn Ski Resort. Just follow it all the way up & over the Mesa (through Cedaredge) and it will drop you off in Delta. It’s just one of many beautiful drives around the western side of the Rocky Mountains that I encourage anyone with an adventuresome spirit to put it on their bucket list.
The Grand Mesa is the world’s largest flattop mountain and home to more than 300 lakes, reservoirs & ponds. “Color Weekend” occurs the last weekend of September every year. The ski lift at Powderhorn Ski Resort is open to ride & get a unique perspective of the colors on the mountain as well as a grand view of the arid valley below to the East which offers a stark contrast indeed. Powderhorn also opens their cafe, bar & grill for those who forget to bring a picnic lunch. Enjoying lunch or drinks out on their deck is an absolute must with the delightful views.
Two weeks after making the big move to Colorado from San Diego (where I’d lived my entire life) and at the ripe “old age” of 49, I began a new chapter of my life here in the Grand Valley on the Western Slope. At a downtown Grand Junction car show I discovered the local Mustang Club and was delighted when they invited me to tag along with them for the drive the following day.
“Color Sunday” is a long time tradition here on the Colorado Western Slope and it’s quite a beautiful experience that I recommend to anyone interested in the beauty of mother nature as she transitions from one season to the next. Spring and summer here in the Grand Valley are indeed breathtakingly beautiful with all the colorful vineyards and fruit orchards in Palisade and East Orchard Mesa and with the spectacular colored canyons, mountains, Bookcliffs and buttes all around us. But Fall... is truly spectacular in all its glory. These pictures with my cheap camera simply can’t do it justice... you must see with your own eyes!
These pictures have not been touched up (only a few were cropped) and taken with a fairly inexpensive Canon 35mm camera so that’s why they’re not professional-grade nor am I a professional photographer so please don’t judge the 'quality'. Also some were taken from behind the windshield hence the weird reflections & smudges in a few. I just wanted to share this with anyone interested in seeing what it looks like here in the Fall.
Enjoy the ride!

Winter Drive to Grand Mesa
A winter day's drive from Grand Junction, Colorado, up to the top of the Grand Mesa. This 56 minute drive begins at Exit 37, around 4,800 feet above sea level, in high desert terrain. It ends 56 minutes later at nearly 11,000 feet above sea level in a coniferous forest.
There is no audio or narration. It is assumed that most viewers will be watching while on a treadmill or stationary bike while listening to their own music.
Footage of drive through Grand Junction, Colorado
Some old footage I found on my computer of Grand Junction, Co. I used to live there and this is some footage I recorded of the town back in May of 2017. I drove around most of the city's major areas.You'll see most of Grand Junction's major streets and landmarks, including Colorado Mesa University, Downtown, Mesa Mall, and others. Some of the major streets I took include North ave, Patterson, 12th, Main St, Independent, parts of I-70 that pass by the city, and more! If you want to get an idea of what Grand Junction looks like at street level, this is the video for you.
I included some music in the background because I thought it would be better than silence, but I understand that the music I chose may not be to everyone's liking. If that's the case for you, turn it off.
