What to Do in Ouray

The town draws its name from the Ute chieftain Ouray (you-RAY). Before the miners arrived, the Native Americans came to the area to enjoy the hot springs. The first silver strike was made in 1875. The politics, foibles and personalities of the mining camps were lambasted in the Solid Muldoon; the paper became one of the most widely quoted of the time—even Queen Victoria of England was a subscriber.
