Ouray Ice Park Guide
Due to the Gorge’s easy access, the best way to navigate the Park is to send one climber down to look at the ice and one up top to set the rope. We highly recommend using radios. Rocky Talkie is our favorite brand.
Climbing Area Maps
Lead only Area
The Lead Only area is not maintained so please read the ice before you embark and treat it as you would backcountry ice.
Trestle/Mixed Alcove
Trestle/Mixed Alcove climbing area is no longer considered a distinct area in the Ice Park. The Mixed Alcove climbs have been folded into the Pic O’ Vic area. The four "trestle" anchors will remain closed this season due to construction.
