Mountains and Mesas: Spring Escapes in Ouray, San Juan & Hinsdale Counties

Mountain Multisport Days

Ski epic terrain in the a.m. at Silverton Mountain and in the backcountry off of Red Mountain Pass. After lunch, pull out your mountain bike for Ridgway’s RAT Trails or your trail shoes for Ouray’s scenic Perimeter Trail. Before sunset, send a quick climb at Ouray’s Rotary Park and end your day with a soak in one of Ouray County’s five sulfur-free hot springs.

Western Heritage Blooms in Spring

Ouray and Ridgway’s local mining, ranching and railroad museums open with new exhibitions. Silverton welcomes the Bar D Wranglers annual Round Up Dinner each May and Lake City celebrates a unique piece of local history with Alferd Packer Days over Memorial Day Weekend.
