Ouray is just on the other side of the mountain from Lake City, but you have to drive around about three hours to get between the two. Even though we climb there pretty much every year, we still wanted to spend a few days and get in some pitches before heading north toward Salt Lake to swap gear for the next season.
We didn’t do anything too spectacular, but we did climb a bunch of pitches and spend way too much for chocolate at Mouse’s like we always do. For real, that place has to be a front for money laundering, but the chocolate is really damn good.
