Museum of the West
There's nothing like the stories of the Wild West and you can separate fact from fiction and get a taste of what it was like "back in the day" when Wyatt Earp and company roamed the West with the buffalo. Check out their info here.

McInnis Canyons-Black Ridge Canyons
It's amazing to me how the Earth has been shaped in millions of years. Water rushing through once tiny streams and movement of the rock formed these canyons. The colors are beyond anything we could see in Binghamton, that's for sure!

Old Downtown
As with here, grand Junction had to work to rebuild a time worn downtown area. The work was worth it and you can enjoy the product, with lovely shops and eateries lining the street. There is art all around too. You could even bring back ideas that help Binghamton.
