I've done the Colorado National Monument before, on a bicycle, but I need to go to Grand Junction anyways to pick up something at UPS that I ordered so I figure I might as well swing back through the park on my way to the campground. It's a nice road to ride on the motorcycle, particularly since there isn't much traffic to get in my way.

View to the south. There are thunderstorms in the area but they mostly miss me.
