    Make a Quick Trip to Palisade this Fall • Salt Lake Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Last spring, as I rested on my tailgate after a particularly challenging pedal in Fruita, Colorado’s 18 Road trail system, my riding partner looked up from her phone and said, “Did you know there’s a bunch of wineries just a few minutes away from here in Palisade?” Until that moment, I had assumed the area’s post-ride sustenance options were limited to microbrews and french fries. But with that one Google search, we discovered Palisade, an adorable little town just east of Fruita along Interstat

Hitting the trail at night offers not only lower temperatures and thinner crowds but also the thrill of seeing what emerges after the sun goes down.
