Short 7 mile hike on the Green Mountain Trail, Green Mountain is in the background, which provides excellent views down into the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Fairly new National Park, and the north rim where I was hiking doesn't see too many visitors. The south rim seems to be more popular as it is easier to access by vehicle and is closer to Montrose.

Long way down, don't slip. |

Small pine growing out of a boulder at the canyon edge. Looks like a little bonzai tree. |
The following images are from the drive to the Park along Hwy 50 and 92.
