Home of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison

by KiKitC - last update: Sep 8, 2007

****Under Construction****

Painted Wall at the Black Canyon
Montrose, Colorado is the home of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. In town for a Land Rover rally, we arrived a day early. The entrance to the Black Canyon was just six miles down the road...worth seeing.

See my page for...Black Canyon of the Gunnison

Montrose is also home to the Ute Indian Museum...which sits on the land that was once the homestead of Chief Ouray and his wife Chipeta...champions of the Native American people's cause. The museum pays great tribute to these great souls...see my "Things to do" tips.
Happy Trails....
We stayed in Montrose for five days, heading out to trails in all directions...into various terrains and adventures. We headed South towards Ouray, and hit trails on the Alpine Loop and into Yankee's Basin..
Trails north towards Grand Junction offered a peek into the desert, arch region on Utah's border...

 Another great page! and yes I love your Red!! We had one 1956 model Rover 4*4 wheel. It was great to drive but a gas guzzler. But now Indian scenario is changing we may see Land rovers again made in India!

 Went Jan 2008. Wait staff prompt & helpful. Food disappointing. Ordered 15oz sirloin. Salad warm & wilted. Fries not the best. Too much gristle in the steak & not cooked properly (no real carmelization).
