Colorado National Monument

National Monuments are something of significant interest worthy to be temporarily protected by the President of the US. This one is a series of canyons just across the river from the town. It’s main feature is a road with astounding views. Nice place for the locals, but it’s not a national attraction.

I wondered about the greenhouses next to me, and it appears they are growing cannabis. The address has a license for a marijuana store called the “Happy Camper”, though it’s not built yet. Apparently, an estate is splitting up the original peach, cherry, and grape grows with an RV park and a cannabis grow with retail store, keeping smaller patches of the original plants for atmosphere. Nice setup, but still under construction. If it were completed, the rates might make sense.

By the way, the name of the RV park is RV Base Camp.
