• Animas River Trail - Along the route, you’ll encounter the Animas River, a 126-mile tributary of the San Juan River. This stunning river may have a gentle name now, but the first European explorer to discover it gave it a much more ominous title.
• Pinkerton Hot Springs - Next is Pinkerton Hot Springs, named after dairy farmer James Pinkerton, who established a resort and hotel by the springs, which also served as an illegal speakeasy during prohibition! The resort is long gone, but the natural beauty of the hot springs endures.
• Baker’s Bridge Veterinary Clinic - Baker’s Bridge might seem unremarkable, but it holds great significance for classic film enthusiasts. This is where Paul Newman and Robert Redford made their iconic leap into the Animas River in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid!

• Molas Pass - Molas Pass rises an impressive 10,910 feet above sea level, making it one of the highway’s two highest mountain passes. Despite this elevation, it’s also a renowned landmark along an annual bicycle racing route! Skilled cyclists push their way to the top, then enjoy the downhill ride.
• Molas Lake - Pristine, serene, and quite chilly, Molas Lake is one of the best spots to admire the San Juan Mountains and the Weminuche Wilderness. Formed by glaciers thousands of years ago, it’s now a perfect picnic location for the weary traveler.
• Silverton - Silverton may derive its name from the precious metal once mined nearby, but the history of this land extends far before the arrival of miners and their mules. As you pass through, you’ll glimpse into the history of the Ute tribe who once called this their home, and what happened to them when the mining boom began.
• Ironton - On your journey, you’ll encounter the remnants of Ironton. Once a thriving mining town, built largely around iron ore extraction, Ironton is now one of many ghost towns left behind after mining operations in these mountains ceased. The last Ironton resident passed away in 1960.
• Bear Creek Falls - Bear Creek Falls is a stunning, 200-foot cascading waterfall that is a must-see along your route. If you’re visiting in the fall, the autumn foliage enhances this already impressive attraction.

• Ouray Ice Park - From December to March, the Ouray Ice Park provides wintry adventures for daring explorers. The park’s main feature is a massive ice wall designed specifically for climbing.
• Box Canyon Waterfall & Park - Ouray’s Box Canyon Falls Park is brimming with stunning scenery. Towering canyon walls, excellent hiking trails, and scenic picnic spots characterize much of the park. But the main attraction is the enormous waterfall cascading over the canyon’s edge, viewable from both below and above!
• Ouray Historical District - Ouray’s Historical District has beautifully preserved its heritage as a 19th-century mining town. The district features numerous charming Victorian-era homes and commercial buildings, as well as a magnificent opera house that was saved from demolition.
