Coordinates: 38°01′08″N 107°40′35″W / 38.01888°N 107.67645°W / 38.01888; -107.67645
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
At the north end of the Gorge the Uncompahgre River flows into a deep box canyon which is home to Ouray Ice Park.[1]
Access to the gorge is via U.S. Highway 550 along the Million Dollar Highway which is cut through the steep cliffs high above the river.
Several waterfalls fall into the canyon, including Bear Creek Falls, right under a bridge on Highway 550 about 3 miles (5 km) south of Ouray.
