Nonprofits preserve Hunter Creek Valley history (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Hunter Creek Valley is full of historic buildings, old mining infrastructure and serene nature where locals can take refuge. But preserving some structures takes money and people power. Two Colorado-based nonprofits — the Hunter Creek Historical Foundation and HistoriCorps — have found a way to do it. Project managers and volunteers have spent four years restoring the Koch Homestead site, which was established as an estate in the 1880s. The site is made up of four buildings: a shop, a reside
Community questions shifting company culture at Aspen One (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Aspen One held its first-ever community town hall Tuesday following several presentations the company gave to local governments in recent months on the state of the ski industry. The gathering also comes after a number of letters to local newspaper editors critiqued company decisions.

Garfield County may fund Hogback bus route for one more year, but future is unclear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Garfield County commissioners are leaning toward funding the Hogback bus service for one more year, but they said they will stop supporting the route after 2027. Commissioners tentatively agreed to give the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority $200,000 for the Hogback route at a Tuesday meeting. The Hogback route has served residents in New Castle, Silt and Rifle since 2002. But Silt, Rifle and Garfield County are not members of RFTA so the municipalities do not have long-term funding set aside
