GALS’ GETAWAY
Your main squeeze is great and all, but your BFFs have a much higher capacity for Beaujolais and baby goat videos. So sip and spill the tea, the wine, and whatever’s lighting up your group chat.
MORNING:
Rise and shine! Fuel your morning with a fresh cup of jitter juice at Kiln Coffee Bar in Downtown Grand Junction — or skip the bean buzz and head straight next door to the Goat & Clover Tavern, where mimosas flow and brunch with the gals is always on the menu. Once the mimosas are memories, let your fashion sense lead the way—Downtown’s boutiques are calling. Unique finds are plentiful at Pollux Boutique, Willliams Mercantile, and Klik Boutique.
AFTERNOON:
Worked up an appetite? That’s good, because Tacoparty is an unexpected flavor-fueled experience, serving up bold bites inspired by what’s in season from local farms and orchards. Save room for the soft serve ice cream, it’s a swirl of culinary genius. Next, head over to Willow Creek Herbs & Teas, a popular apothecary, and create your own custom blend with 500 exotic teas and spices. Elevate your well-being with essential oils and peruse the jewelry and Native American art.
It’s time to get your pulse turned up a notch! Rent a paddleboard, fishing pole, or kayak and splash down on 300 lakes as you explore the waters of the largest flat-top mountain in the world, the Grand Mesa. In the Fall it’s painted with golden aspen hues, perfect for a photo op while hiking and peering over steep cliffs. During the snowy months, enjoy snowshoeing and backcountry skiing on groomed trails, or hit the slopes at Powderhorn Mountain Resort.
EVENING:
Tonight, you’re destined for scenic rooftop dining at Devil’s Kitchen. The Grand Junction sunset reflects off Colorado National Monument unveiling a magical backdrop when dining on the spacious rooftop patio. Try their signature Deviled Kitchen Eggs or crispy Duck Wings. With a regionally inspired menu and panoramic views, this rooftop gem delivers a dining experience you won’t soon forget.
Wrap up your night with stargazing atop Colorado National Monument—it’s like nature’s encore, complete with wish-worthy shooting stars. It’s truly an out-of-this-world experience that leaves you floating long after you’ve come back down to Earth.
