The town of Ouray, CO, in an
area known as the "Switzerland of the
Americas," was a welcome sight after crossing high snowy
passes, motoring north on U.S. 550. Ice
Waterfalls are seen from the Box Canyon Road just south of town.
There is even a viewing platform for sight-seers. One motel offers
a "20% discount for ice climbers." No one was climbing
while I was there. Photos taken February 28, 2002 by Petesthousandpeaks.
