Nice area but.....

My husband and I visit Grand Junction and the area frequently during the summer months. It is a wonderful place to relax and there are lots of outdoor activities. However be aware of the burning season which starts March 1st. This happens for 3 months in the spring and a couple of months in the fall. This time is set for agricultural burning. The smoky air contains particulates and is NOT healthy to breathe! This is a big problem for anyone who wants to live in a healthy environment. And during the winter there is an inversion over the Grand Valley which also causes pollution. This is why we only visit in the summer. I have heard that things have been this way for a very long time and most likely will not change. Too bad because this area is very nice otherwise!
