With over 300 lakes, Grand Mesa is the highest Flat Topped mountain in the World. During a long weekend in June, my pal Jackson lead a club run to explore Grand Mesa. Though overcast for the whole weekend, I had a blast finally checking out Grand Mesa. The wildflowers were abundant and the scenery awesome. With all the aspens, feel a fall trip to the Mesa would be a great time.

Friday nights camp among the tall Aspens.

Another overcast gray morning.

Marsh Merigolds. They were everywhere at the lake.

Stuck. Not having sliders and worn tires, I was a bit more cautious with the driving.
