I lived in Montrose for awhile after H.S. learned to ski at Telluride, awesome. We pronounced it " Ur A" and it is indeed beautiful.

OMG..looking down that waterfall gave me the jitters.

Just a pointer from a 4th generation local, It's pronounced "Your Aye" not "Oo Ray"

[@2ndlifeseekers282]

Not sure..I'm 7th generation, you're wrong

[@todwinner7]

I can second this, I have always heard "Your Aye" and never "Oo Ray"
