6th annual Love Your Gorge

Join UWP and the Ouray Ice Park in beautifying and maintaining the watershed around the Uncompahgre River Gorge. This volunteer event, recognized by American Rivers and the International Coastal Cleanup, starts with three hours of work around the park and gorge, and ends with lunch, beer, giveaways, and a tour of the park.

For 2023, we will again be removing litter, debris, and invasive plant species from the park. We will also be refurbishing a picnic table and making improvements at the kid’s climbing wall.

Thank you very much to the City of Ouray and Alpine Bank for sponsorship of this year’s event.

Please sign up by Oct. 6 with the form so we can determine our activities for Love Your Gorge day and keep track of how many supplies we need. After you signup, we will send information about what to bring, where to park and other details.
