Best shops and artists in town that specialize in American traditional style?

Looking for a private pottery class or private pottery lessons at someone's home or studio. Please let me know if you know anyone in Durango area!

I’m moving to the area and am wondering which gym would be a good fit for me. I’m in my 20s and very active. I love to workout. I like attending classes the most. I’m wondering what gyms offer a lot of classes, I have a busy schedule so need a lot of time options. The rec center looks decent but they close pretty early.

I finally got to turn on the old 3:50 Alarm to check the live cams and all I've got to say is how dare they do this to us snow depraved folks. On a serious note, it's snowing!!

Looking to bike in the next few days. Anyone done horse gulch recently? How are conditions? Thanks.

Hello. Been living her for two years and CAN NOT find a good coffee place. I’ve tried Durango coffee co, smileys, stilllife,hermosa, joes, raiders and probably more I’m forgetting. Have never been wowed or impressed by any of it. Is there any good coffee here?

This is probably a stupid longshot, but if you or someone you know stole a Burton snowboard with a bear on it today (1/28) from Purgatory, can you please consider messaging me to arrange returning it? This board was very sentimental to my husband, and it was stolen on his birthday, which really ruined the day. That specific board meant a lot to him, and it is no longer available for sale. I just want to get it back for him. (Yes, it should’ve been locked— lesson learned)

Skiing Purgatory for the first time this weekend. I'm an intermediate skier and was wondering what everyone's favorite blues were? Any easier blacks without moguls?

Just wanted to make sure this isn’t misinformation. Ice cream trucks have been coming by according to rumor. Is this true? I want to make sure that everyone knows the best flavor to get.

As local filmmakers, we are elated to announce that our documentary, Moving Line, was selected to be screened at the Durango Independent Film Fest!

Moving Line tells the story of the three amateur skiers who were the first to cross the entire state of Colorado, and how in doing so, they discovered inspiration to express themselves as artists. The film will resonate with Colorado history and ski history enthusiasts, as well as artists and creators, as we seek to recognize the connection between spending time outdoors and creativity.

We invite you to explore our YouTube channel, were we have produced a documentary mini-series that explores that connection, featuring six artists whose work is inspired by nature and the outdoors.

The schedule for this years film fest will be released in mid-February and our film will be featured in the Nature: In Snow or In The Backyard Documentary Shorts Program grouping of films. We hope to see you all there!

I think they were an offshoot of flds and had fenced up a bunch of public land to try and claim it

With the recent fires around LA made me think about a lot of houses in Durango area that have trees all around them, and wondered about both fire risk as well as reasonably-priced home insurance

Anyone have any recent experience acquiring home insurance? Any issues like they’re having in other places with insurers declining to insure?

Hello everyone

We are visiting Durango and Purg in a couple of weeks. We are a big group, around 10 adults and 13 children.

Do you have any recommendations for a restaurant that can take reservations, big groups and also kids?

If not possible, that’s ok. My wife and I will ditch the rest of the group and have dinner ourselves. We are the only childless couple. So… F the rest of the crew. We can go out late and drink without worrying about kids. (For the moment, planning on having kids this year)

Anything fun to do or to go?

I work at Speedway and just wanted to spread the word that a lot of people over the past two or three months in Durango have mentioned having to lock their cards due to money being stolen from their accounts. We're talking 30, maybe 40 people in the past 2 months, which is way higher than the usual amount I hear it. I suspect somewhere in town there's a card skimmer, so just a warning to keep a little alert when paying for things.

We check our card readers daily for skimmers, but not everyone might be so vigilant.

Does anybody know where I could get my 2008 Kawasaki KLR serviced, she’s been sitting for a while and tried to start her up, but I am experiencing a gas leak and just want to take it to a mechanic before I mess it up anymore

Hi Everyone. Planning a trip to Colorado in early/mid June and the entire trip is focused around taking the Durango/Silverton train trip. It's something I've wanted to do since I was 10 (I'm 64 now). Plan on going first class, but would like recommendations on the best car to choose once reservations open up. I'm torn between bench seats and a glass ceiling car, or a nice table and chair but just regular windows. Any experienced train riders have recommendations?

Also taking recommendations for other attractions in the Durango area. Planning on doing the Bar D Chuckwagon one evening. But other ideas are also welcome. We'll have a few days in the area.

I know, I know. This is a dog town. But I have a sweet, old kitty that needs a glow up. In particular, his nails don't shed like they used to, so they're getting really thick (not long, if that makes sense). Looking for an experienced, gentle groomer who can help thin them down. Any recommendations? Would rather not have to pay the vet to do it. Thanks!

Haven’t been over there in a few months. Wanna go fishing tomorrow but don’t know if I can fish the inlet or if I need to bring my ice fishing stuff

I am looking for a short and affordable trip. I know the Durango airport is expensive but anything below $400 for a round trip in may?

Group of 4 of us booked a trip for mid February. Doing some reading on here and it appears snow can be hit or miss. It is reasonable for us to assume there will be a good amount of snow to ski/board?

Just looking for some place that has little to no city lights and is high up so there isn't any obstruction (mountains,etc) to view the full sky.

If you didn't know, all the planets will be in line tonight!!!!! (And maybe the next few weeks?)

More specifically I’m looking to resole a pair of boots for wildland fire. Thanks for any suggestions

Howdy -

Anyone know the condition of the Ice Lakes trail currently?

Thanks!

Edit: Message received! Seriously appreciate it.

I thought the stop signs this summer were keeping things flowing.

Hello! What are some of your favorite Vegetarian dishes to eat in town? I have already eaten everything at Taco Bell. Thank you! Live Mas!
