Travel guide: Fun fall trips in the Rockies
Weekend in Grand Valley, CO
With its miles of cattle ranches and fruit orchards, the Grand Valley once had a reputation for being a bit boring. But day-trippers
from Denver and Boulder are drifting west to discover a mini Napa-meets-Boulder-meets-Moab.
The trio of towns here—Palisade, Grand Junction, and Fruita—have it all. Vineyard-striped wine country? Check. World-class
mountain bike trails? Check. Great food, shopping, and shows? Check, check, check.
And you’ll have it to yourself in the fall, plus cooler temps.
