Rt 8 Ridgway Colorado, Uncompahgre National Forest

In this video we travel from Ouray Colorado where we base camped, to Ridgway, where we picked up Rt 8, a dirt rd that leads into the Uncompahgre National Forest and up into the mountains surrounding Ridgway. It snowed the night before (mid June), and as we gained in altitude the snow became heavier and finally obscured the road. Our goal was to reach Chimney Rock and the Wetterhorn Trailhead, but had to turn back. All in all it was a great day and enjoyed the scenery. We hope you enjoy this video.
