TWO GEEZERS, A SOLDIER, AND A DOG: Hiking the Perimeter Trail, Ouray Colorado and Cascade Falls

The Perimeter Trail in Ouray Colorado is an adventure for sure. It includes narrow trails along cliff faces, Cascade falls after a steep climb and a path behind the falls, and tons of smaller water falls as you make your way around the town of Ouray. The trail tops out at an elevation of 8500 feet, right after one of the most beautiful spots covered in Aspens. There is also a huge Box Canyon with falls and a tunnel. The town of Ouray is also delightful with excellent restaurants, historic buildings, and beautiful flowers. This was a new area for our group although we have all hiked a lot in Colorado -- it did not disappoint.

Are you over 60 years old? Do you enjoy the outdoors and want to try backpacking? Wondering if you can? Be assured you can! If we can do it (mid 60s and overweight), you can do it! If you have any questions at all about our Colorado backpacking adventures, please feel free to reach out in the comments section below.

We love to talk about our hiking and backpacking adventures. We both work full-time. Backpacking (and making videos) is a hobby we love. If you enjoy our videos, we would very much appreciate a thumbs up and/or a comment, so we know you are enjoying what we are sharing. If you want to get notices when we post videos and encourage us to keep spending our free time putting these together, please subscribe as well.
