We celebrated our 40th anniversary a few days early at the Llama Ranch B&B on the slopes of the Grand Mesa, supposedly the world's largest mesa. It is very nice, about 7800 feet high and very green. The llama are very docile. Drove the Grand Mesa, which is chock full of lakes. There is a huge spur off the mesa called Land's End that we drove 12 miles, with spectacular views from the end of the Uncompaghre Valley and Grand Junction. Reminded us of Cape Kidnapper in New Zealand, except the views are not of ocean way below but of land. Very nice. We also toured through Colorado National Monument, with fantastic rock formations and colors. We were going to camp there, but decided to see it on a day trip from the llama ranch and instead camp in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and explore the canyon.
