Delta

Among Colorado’s cities, Delta stands out for its position at the confluence of the Gunnison and Uncompahgre rivers, where irrigated farmland meets the drier country of the Western Slope. As the seat of Delta County, it serves an agricultural district known for orchards, vineyards and farms sustained by water from the regional river system. The town lies south of Grand Mesa, the immense flat-topped landform that shapes the surrounding horizon and rises into cooler forest country. Downtown’s Egyptian Theatre, opened in 1928, preserves a distinctive example of early cinema architecture.
