Bear Creek Falls

Bear Creek Falls, Ouray, Colorado  © Doug Hickok  All Rights Reserved



Bear Creek Falls near Ouray is a beautiful and easy cascade to see. 

It flows beneath the Million Dollar Highway and 
can be seen from the vantage point of a roadside overlook. 

The area around the picturesque little town of Ouray, 

nestled high in the San Juan Mountains and surrounded by majestic peaks, 
is one of our favorite places. If you ever get to Colorado, don't miss it.

  1. Lovely image. I love the blue water at the bottom and the warmer rock at the top of the waterfall. I get a real feel of cool water down below. Excellent photo.

  3. I can hear the water, feel the mist, and find the little patch of green very uplifting.
