Ouray Colorado Ghost Town
These photos do not do justice for the really great ghost town of Ouray. I promise to update these for you. You need to walk the streets of this Ghost Town to get a feel for it. Take a hike to the falls, see the hot springs, or check out the Hotel.
It wouldn't hurt to visit the courthouse where some of the scenes for "True Grit" were filmed.

A reader writes - This is Kaye from Oklahoma again, I have been to Ouray, and you can consider it might have been a ghost town at one time. Then the gold rush came about and it became a bigger town. So if you want to call Ouray a ghost town well that's your business, cause I think it was at one time. If that makes sense. LOL
A reader writes - Hello,I love it,Ouray and Silverton. I am looking for a great picture to have painted on the wall in my classroom. Mountains, lake, Ouray from the south, looking at the whole town with mts. everywhere.) I teach 7th grade, we have no windows, but these mountains we and many others share would really make my classroom bright. This is a great site. Drop me a note sometime, it would be nice to share mountain stories. God Bless! Lynn P.S. We have vacationed in Ouray since 1980. I long to be teaching there. Any information on how to breathe up there? The last 2 years breathing has been harder it seems.
