[Mile-marker 3]
After Colorado Highway 340 curves right it is known as Broadway—a paved
road serving much of The Redlands and connecting with the West Entrance
of the Monument. We will follow Broadway about 3 miles, passing low
outcrops and roadcuts of the Dakota Sandstone, some of which contain
coal beds and some of which are covered by a veneer of gravel laid down
by the river when the channel was higher. Then, at the first store and
filling station we turn southwest on another paved road known as South
Broadway.
