Ouray is set in
one of the most
magnificent locations in Colorado. Surrounded by high mountain walls
dominated by Mount Abrams to the south, and the awe inspiring
Amphitheater to the east, Ouray is truly the Gem of the Rockies. Today
the town's history is very evident in its well preserved historic
structures. While tourism is a strong contributor to the local economy,
Ouray has escaped the excesses of over-development. Make no mistake,
this is not Telluride. Real people live here, and real people visit
here, to hunt, hike and jeep the high country above town. If you visit
in the winter, bring your ice climbing gear or cross country skis.
Whenever you visit, bring your camera. -
Ouray Today -
Ouray is a vibrant small town today. Besides the views and hot springs,
it has a number of Jeep rental agencies which also offer tours for
those who prefer to let someone else do the driving. There are
accommodations and restaurants for every budget. While it seems more
and more visitors discover Ouray each year, the town has managed to
maintain itself as a place where real people can live. If you visit,
treat them with respect. They've managed to live where you wish you
could.
Life in Colorado is verry nice , so eanywhere you go , you will have
fun!!!!!!
