In Ouray, one of the creeks that flows down from the mountains and through the
town is Cascade Creek.
Though there are more sets of falls further up, there are two main ones named
closer in to the town:
Lower Cascade Falls and Upper Cascade Falls.
Today, we took a walk from the Ouray Hotel where we were staying, to Lower
Cascade Falls.
Here, you can see the falls through the backyard of this house...
After we arrived at the park, and started walking up the path, we noticed
rose petals covering the ground...
Turned out someone was getting married, right there and then...
Here's a video of the waterfall...
One time, we witnessed a guy 'sliding' down this particular canal...
On our way back to the hotel...
What a nice way to get this vacation going in this beautiful little town.
Side note:
I took way, way, way more photos than what I
have displayed on these pages.
if you were on a trail run with me, and want to see if you're in
there anywhere,
or if you're just curious about the rest of our trip,
please feel free to download the 'BULK' sets of full resolution
images from each day.
They are available
here.
Just download the zip file/s for whichever day/s you are interested
in, extract them, and have at it.
