Among the many things people look forward to when winter makes its presence known, it’s the annual opening of the Ouray Ice Park. The park has achieved a fame that practically spans the globe, grabbing the attention of people from ice climbers wanting to put their skills to the test. Speaking of skills, the park is open to everyone no matter how experienced or inexperienced they may be.
This past weekend, the Ouray Ice Festival was once again celebrated! The festival is a large affair of all things that have to do with the sport of ice climbing. Vendor exhibitions every day, the newest innovations in gear and tools for climbing the ice, well over fifty distinct interactive and educational classes for professionals and beginners, it’s unquestionably an experience you may wish to consider when it returns in 2020.
While the 2019 Ouray Ice Festival is over, the Ouray Ice Park itself is still open! Should you need a place to stay, we will be happy to set you up in a nice, warm room while you soak in the Ouray ambiance and check out all of the incredible sights.
