The "Hot Ouray" letterbox is located at the end of town in Box Canyon park. This park contains a great waterfall down in a gorge, with catwalk and hiking trails to see it and the canyon.

Directions:
Follow signs at south end of town off Hwy 550. Park in main lot and go pay fee at visitor center.

To the letterbox:
From Visitor Center, exit and head toward falls. Turn left soon and go up stairs on the "high Bridge Trail". After the shelter, continue up the trail until you pass "3" marker. Soon after this is a sign that says "Please Stop Trail....." that is attached to a tree. Continue from the sign up the trail for 20 steps. Go left on a faint trail up the hill for 17 steps. Go right to back side of Evergreen tree 4 steps up. Box is under rock on upper base side.
