Pulling tubes
DuranGO! Outside provides curb-to-curb service between any location in city limits and various recreation areas including: Lake Nighthorse; Oxbow; 32nd and 29th street put-ins; Cundiff Park; Santa Rita Park; High Bridge; Dallabetta Park; Colorado Trail at Junction Creek; Horse Gulch; Dalla Mountain Park; Animas Mountain; Smelter Mountain; and other areas within city limits.
Riders can book a lift using the DuranGO app (found on your phone’s app store or by scanning the QR code on the ad on the back page of this week’s Telegraph.)
Rides will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Bikes and small watercraft, such as tubes and paddleboards, will be accommodated when possible. Well-behaved pets on leashes are allowed.
The service was made possible by a grant from CDOT’s Office of Innovative Mobility with the goal of alleviating congestion at popular recreational areas and expanding access to areas that are not served by the City’s fixed-route transit service.

Remember last year, when the Trump administration asked national park goers to “report any signs or other information that are negative about either past or living Americans or that fail to emphasize the beauty, grandeur and abundance of landscapes and other natural features”?
Well, it seems park-goers have pushed back, bigly.

Gas prices are once again giving America something to complain about. And while the local beer meisters at Ska Brewing can’t fix the price at the pump, the brewery is offering one small bit of relief: a new light beer that costs one cent less than the price of a gallon of unleaded gas.
Introducing Ska’s newest brew: West’s Easy Light Lager, because “everything else is so hard.”

On most days, Tracy Harwood spends her time as a court clerk for the City of Durango. But next Thurs., June 4 – International Corgi Day – she hopes to bring something entirely different to town: short legs, wiggly butts and oversized personalities.

It’s a mash-up made in Westernwear heaven. Sort of. Seems Chaco, the purveyor of the iconic strappy dirtbag river rat footwear, has joined forces with Wrangler, as in tight jeans, big belt buckles, bull riding and snap shirt fame.
