The rec center is only a few years old, and has state of the art equipment including elliptical machines with individual televisions. It's even cheap - $5 and you can stay all day.

Nice visitor center! Located in the South Rim of Black Canyon of the Gunnison, if you're planning…read moreon visiting the North Rim and have any questions, highly recommend stopping here - the North Rim is a lot more remote and does not have a visitor center. There were plenty of park rangers helping everyone when we visited. We had quite a few questions on the North Rim, and they were able to help us plan our visit there without issue. They have a nice bookstore with plenty of BCGNP merch. Plenty of exhibits to learn more about the park. One of the most important things - they have WiFi. South Rim does not have any internet service, so if you need to look something up for your trip and plug in a route on maps for your trip down the mountain, great stop to get that sorted out. Also has bathrooms - always a plus. Parking can be a bit chaotic here. The lot was full, but there's a lot of movement as people don't stay very long. If you don't find a spot on your first drive-through, you'll have to leave the lot, go back to the road, and circle back. Definitely recommend stopping by, especially if you're planning a visit to the North Rim.

We would of totally missed it if it hadn't been for some people we met at a restaurant. Colorado National Monument is not a National Park; it is a National Monument managed by the National Park Service. It's name doesn't portray the beauty and magnitude of this gorgeous park. It is a 23 mile drive and is often called the mini-grand canyon. The towering red rock monoliths and the Canyon views were absolutely incredible.

What bliss this is…read more Colorado National Monument is basically the smaller in scale sandstone-stacked cousin of the Grand Canyon, but without all the horrific traffic and crowds upon crowds, especially at the start of summer. This place has miles of views with gorgeous towering cliffs, dramatic canyons and many trails for walking and hiking. You can also see the Grand Mesa (the world's largest flat-topped mountain) and the Book Cliffs from the monument. And it has that Grand Canyon feeling when you look at its depth -- as though you are looking directly into a painting. Along about a 20-mile highway (with an east and west entrance) you can enjoy the full views. There are plenty of places to pull over and park to take a look or to plan for a hike. And be very, very careful. The main drive is very deeply beloved by cyclists, so be sure to drive slow and keep eyes on the road. Do not miss Independence Monument. This is a glorious rock spire. also, the Kissing Couple is adorable. The Coke Ovens are these beautifully shaped domes -- some of my favorites in the area. Also, be aware of wildlife. I did not get lucky, but there are regular sights of bighorn sheep, coyotes, red-tailed hawks, eagles and many other animals. I did see a pretty spectacular aerial fight between a hawk and a raven during a recent visit, though. Also, be sure to check out the visitor center on the west side. It has some natural history exhibits and a gift shop. There is also the Saddlehorn Campground, which is very well maintained and has a good number of spots, but not all with sprawling city or canyon views. All told, there are three loops with nearly 80 sites. Some are small and best for a pair and others that are good for a couple of tents on one site. Overall, bring lots of water and snacks, because it is dry and sometimes feels desert like. And do not over rely on cell service, as there are a number of dead zones.
