Get Your Axe In Gear!

*** OPENING DAY FOR THE OURAY ICE PARK 2009/2010 SEASON IS DECEMBER 19TH, BUT WE MAY OPEN EARLY IF CONDITIONS ALLOW***

Autumn has arrived in the San Juan Mountains. Ouray is experiencing the vibrant colors of the Aspens and periodic snow in the high country. The temps overnight are dropping below freezing and soon we will begin making ice.

Ice climbing season will be here soon. It’s time to get your gear, your mind and your body ready. It is also time to begin thinking about your climbing plans. We hope it will include a visit to Ouray.

Our 15th Annual Ouray Ice Festival and Climbing Competition occurs January 7 – 10, 2010. We hope to see you then!

If you are in Ouray and have questions about the Ice Park feel free to call me at 970.318.1376.  This is not a fax number.  Please use the email address provided on the contact page.

Cheers, Erin Eddy
