The Devils Kitchen Picnic Area is the closest venue to Grand Junction. Several picnic tables are sheltered within the covered structure. Water at the indoor restrooms and drinking fountain is turned off seasonally for the winter, when nighttime temperatures generally remain below freezing. During winter, two portable restrooms are stationed along the path between the parking lot and picnic tables.
