Camp Chief Ouray YMCA Of The Rockies

Situated in the picturesque town of Granby, Colorado, Camp Chief Ouray (CCO) is a renowned summer camp nestled at the edge of the Rocky Mountains. Since 1908, we have been dedicated to providing an exceptional outdoor experience that fosters personal growth, teamwork, and camaraderie among our campers.
