Something absolutely incredible was spotted on Monday in Grand Junction. Watch this person do some powered paragliding over the Colorado River in Grand Junction. Julie Hunter was floating the Colorado River in Grand Junction on Monday afternoon (June 14) with some friends. They were admiring the wildlife and were telling each other 'look, there's a bald eagle' and 'look, there's a deer' and then they saw something that made them question 'wait, what is that?'.

Back in 1989, it became illegal to own a pit bull in Denver after a number of attacks were reported. However, back in November of 2020, the city voted on repealing the ban and it was approved by roughly 65% of the votes. Now, we've gotten word that the city...

A Colorado Springs home listed on Realtor on Tuesday and has been dubbed a "landlord's nightmare". This five-bedroom, four-bathroom, 3,598 square foot home three-quarters of an acre is going to need quite a bit of TLC to get it back up to living standards. The listing states if you are...

As pandemic recovery continues, Grand Junction is wide open but it's not business as usual for all businesses. Compared to where we were a year ago at this time, local restaurants must be ecstatic to welcome large numbers of customers to their establishment. However, having more customers means needing more workers to meet the demand and that has presented a challenge for some Grand Junction restaurants.

The scent of Coors Banquet, brewed with Rocky Mountain spring water, attracted a bear to a Nissan SUV, because Coloradans love bear, and apparently that includes bears, too. We all know that food will attract wildlife — especially bears — to campsites, but most of us probably wouldn't think a case of beer would also do the trick. Colorado Parks and Wildlife shared the photos below as a reminder to hikers and campers to always lock your car doors in bear country, because they have a tendency to break into vehicles often. CPW said that there were over 480 car break-ins committed by bears between 2019 and 2020.

The bears are and have been awake now for some time and with the heatwave that we've been going through lately, even THEY are looking for ways to cool down. I'm not sure but I'm guessing the video was captured on some sort of trail cam because to get THAT close to a Mama Bear and her cubs would be all sorts of crazy and scary...even for a ranger.

Thomas Rhett joins forces with his musical dad —'90s hitmaker and in-demand country songwriter Rhett Akins — for "Things Dads Do," a reflective ballad that is out just in time for Father's Day. The pair shared the brand-new song on Wednesday morning (June 16). Part tribute to Rhett's three daughters,...

To even think about a 4-year-old boy having to battle cancer is enough to bring you to tears, but that is the reality for the Fisher family living in Palisade. Chance and Sarah are doing everything they possibly can to help their 4-year-old boy Jawn as he continues to put up a fight against Leukemia.

After having to socially distance from family due to the COVID-19 pandemic most people are placing a higher value on their time with loved ones. This is why it's even more devastating to hear about 31 kids here in Colorado that have gone missing since just the beginning of the year.

It's fantastic to hear and see all the events returning to Western Colorado. If you've been out the past few weekends it's clear to see that people here are itching for a reason to get outside and socialize. This should give you even more reason to check out the USA BMX Grand Mesa Nationals taking place later this month. In fact, our Grand Junction Sports Commission is looking for volunteers and if you donate some time and you're 21+ you can grab a free beer.

As a born and raised Coloradan, I love to find any chance I can get to take a jab at my Texas friends. With the ever-growing rise of Texans moving into Colorado, it can often feel like an invasion. However, this isn't the first time Texas has attempted to launch an invasion into Colorado. As I so often like to remind my friends after a couple of drinks at Road 34, Colorado volunteers actually defeated a Texas invasion.

This Colorado neighborhood has decided to use a natural weed control, goats. A neighborhood in Colorado is using hundreds of goats to get rid of their weeds. Whenever this Colorado woman, Sonia Benglen, moved into a neighborhood in Parker, Colorado she loved how wildlife was right outside of her door. She lives on a big field that has birds, bugs, deer, and more. But whenever she saw someone in a hazmat suit spraying blue chemicals, she knew she had to do something.

Colorado emergency crews had to make repairs Monday to a portion of road near Castle Rock after it bucked, supposedly due to the heat. Why does this happen?. Check out the video below, and you'll see just how bad "bad" can get when high temperatures get out of control in Colorado.

"Maturity" is a funny word to use around Joe Nichols. The country hitmaker is first to admit he lacked it 19 years ago when his breakthrough Man With a Memory album was released, but the "Brokenheartsville" singer has always been praised for his poise, his patience and his dedication to a classic brand of storytelling.

Out of curiosity, I conducted a quick YouTube search of the town I've called home for roughly a year, Grand Junction, Colorado, and discovered just what our city's online video presence looks like. While the results didn't initially come as a surprise, there were definitely some unexpected videos that popped...
