Beautiful aspen groves
Hay Press is about 45 minutes easy driving from Grand Junction. There are three man made lakes, the Fruita Reservoirs, one of which is dried up. They’re not used for town water anymore and I’m not sure if they’re stocked with fish or not, but the camping spots were easy to navigate and plentiful. The temperature is about 15 degrees cooler than Grand Junction and there was plenty of wildlife. Good spot for a quick get away. Some hiking trails, not much 4 wheeling.
