Montrose is a regional center on Colorado’s Western Slope, serving ranching, agriculture, healthcare and retail across the Uncompahgre Valley. It is the closest town to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and a key gateway for travelers heading to Telluride, Ouray and the San Juan Mountains. Its growing population includes retirees, remote workers and outdoor enthusiasts drawn by easy access to rivers, canyons and high country.
Montrose Regional Airport has a long runway and handles seasonal airline service, much of it carrying skiers bound for Telluride, about an hour and a half away. Flying private into Montrose is especially useful when weather keeps Telluride’s high-mesa airport out of reach. From town, it is a short drive to the Black Canyon’s rim and to the hot springs and mountain scenery of Ouray. Visitors come for fishing on the Gunnison and Uncompahgre rivers, jeep tours in the San Juans and skiing at Telluride.

Things to do in Montrose
When to go. Montrose has a mild climate for the Western Slope, with plenty of sunshine. Late spring through fall is ideal for visiting the Black Canyon and fishing the rivers. September and early October bring golden aspens along the San Juan Skyway and around Ouray. Winters are quieter in town and busier at Telluride, when Montrose serves as the main airport gateway, and Ouray’s Ice Festival takes place in January.
