2020 Ouray Dates Released!

August 15, 2019

The Ribbon Route in Ouray, Colorado (Cale Hoopes)
Climbing in the Ice Park (Mark Allen))

It’s ice climbing season! Ok, it isn’t quite yet, but it is time to book your dates before they sell out for winter 2020. Located in the San Juan Range of southwestern Colorado, Ouray is one of the few locations in the lower 48 states where quality ice climbing is virtually guaranteed in the winter months – contributing to its nickname,”Ice Climbing Capital of North America.”- and to its popularity. There are only so many permits available, so book early!

For you skiers, ice climbing is the perfect complement to a ski vacation. Telluride is just 47 miles (1 hour drive) away from Ouray. Bring the family skiing, then come spend a few days climbing in the Ice Park with IMG!

The Ouray backcountry is the perfect place for climbers interested in more technical peaks in Alaska, the Alps, and the Himalayas.

Programs run from January 4 through February 28.

Email: office@mountainguides.com to register!

(Watch for our New England dates to be posted soon!)
