Ouray and the neighboring areas of Silverton and Telluride are full of ghost towns to explore, capturing a fascinating snapshot of what life was once like during the days of mining. Because of the harsh winter months, many of these towns were abandoned, but remnants still exist within remote areas that in some cases can only be accessed by four-wheel drive vehicles.
