Balanced Rock View

This masterpiece was worth the drive. Almost looks like a man wearing a hat. I can't imagine the difficulty they go through whenever the rock falls off and having to rebalance it all over again.

Not far from west entrance to Colorado National Monument. Wonderful slickrock erosion land-form. Great to view

Balanced rock view is awesome site to be at.. we almost missed it, had to turn our car again to check this magical piece.. parking can get tricky on crowded weekends.. luckily we got the spot to ourselves for nice clicks.. weather was supportive.. if you get lucky you could also encounter some wildlife here..

Saw balanced rock from the road. Amazing it still stands!

A very small pullout like the reviews below mentioned. Interesting how the rock has been formed into this sort of shape! This is the first major lookout for you to enjoy on your journey through this park so enjoy!

Looks like it could fall anytime,

Great view…

Small pullout to take this view in. Incredible area.

Great view!

Great view occasionally see big horn.

Starlight background for balanced rock.

She was balanced perfectly.

Simple amazing 🤗

Beautiful

"Timeless beauty!"

Love the drive

Het leuke aan deze foto is dat hij getrokken is vanaf de Saddlehorn campground. Naar beneden via de sites rond site 43 en dan kom je er bovenop in plaats van onderaan het viewpoint langst de weg. Het viewpoint onderaan ligt aan de rechterkant richting Fruita. Ook ligt er een pullout iets hoger maar dan moet je al durven richting de afgrond parkeren.
