    Looks like a wonderful trip to Ouray. Can you give pointers for lodging?

      Lodging in Ouray is relatively easy to come by.  the Ouray Ice Park website has a list of area hotel/motel/b&b 
      http://ourayicepark.com/travel-planner/ . There are a couple chains (Best Western and Comfort Inn) and you can go to their websites too. there are three on 3rd street that are right at the base of the riverside trail to the Fingers/Gullies.  I’ve stayed at the Best Western, the Comfort Inn, and Victorian Inn. Of the three my current favorite is the Best Western, with an omelet chef at the breakfast, and the hot springs spa.
