The Grand Mesa Scenic Byway is one of those hidden gems in Colorado you have probably never heard of.

It is a stunning drive in the western side of Colorado that runs from just east of Grand Junction, over the Grand Mesa and then heads sound to the Cedaredge where it ends near Delta. It passes a wide range of jaw-dropping scenery including the Chalk Mountain, Grand Mesa lakes, and the adrenaline-pumping Powderhorn Mountain Resort.
