General description of the Ouray South Area
Area Name:	Ouray South
Updated By:	jabo on 11/21/2002
Getting There:
	Drive south from Ouray. This area lies between Ouray and the snow shed 6 or so miles south of town.
Current Conditions:
	Early snows have brought the chance of a stellar ice year. As of Nov. 21, Horsetail falls is still not climbable, but there is ice. Gravity's is out right now with the others there as it's been warm and sunny. Only climb these when it's been really cold and cloudy. Now is not the time.
Other Comments:
	A couple of notable areas here. Gravity's Rainbow is an area classic and the Bear Creek area hold several great climbs, all within walking distance from one another.

Update Area Info:

Add a new Sub Area If there are no sub areas, enter "none" in the fields.
