Garduños Mexican restaurant returns to Eagle

The story of Garduños restaurant is as unique as its cuisine. Juan Garduño, originally from Naucalpan de Juárez, Mexico, arrived in Colorado in 1989 after being invited by his brother with the promise of work in the mountains. Needless to say, construction was booming at the time, with a high demand for workers, but summers invariably had a ghost town feel.

This week in history: Possible Moffat Tunnel sale, Colorado River deadline missed and more

1 year ago: Western states fail to meet deadline on Colorado River cuts. Water managers from the seven states that share the Colorado River have blown a Nov. 11, 2025, deadline given to them by the federal government to come up with a rough plan on how the drought-stricken river will be shared in the future. The Upper Basin (Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming) still cannot find agreement with the Lower Basin (California, Arizona and Nevada) about how the nation’s two largest reservoirs — Lake Powell and Lake Mead — will be operated and how cuts will be shared in dry years. Instead, the states, the Interior Department and the federal Bureau of Reclamation released a short joint statement noting that serious and ongoing challenges face the Colorado River.

Capitol Market now open in Eagle Ranch

Less than two months after Capitol Public House closed its doors in Eagle Ranch, owner Casey Glowacki has figuratively torn down the walls separating the once-popular restaurant from its adjacent Cut Meat and Seafood Market — also owned by Glowacki — to create Capitol Market, a reenvisioned business that combines the concept of a full-service food court with that of a neighborhood corner store.

From Fresh Seafood To Local Favorites, This Winter Park Restaurant In Colorado Is A Hidden Gem

Crab cake Eggs Benedict at a mountain breakfast table in the Rockies? That combo really exists here, and it shares a menu with shrimp etouffee and fried green tomatoes. A Louisiana-style kitchen has been quietly serving hungry Colorado diners since 1990. I love that it skipped the usual ski-town playbook and went straight for gumbo, po’boys, and bread pudding for dessert.

SnowBrains Forecast: Colorado Weekend Snow Favors the San Juans

Colorado’s snow forecast favors the San Juans this weekend, with lighter accumulations farther north. Mild, dry weather lasts through Friday before mountain snow spreads in Friday night and Saturday. The southern mountains get the best base-building boost, while another storm opportunity around the middle of next week carries much greater uncertainty. Friday stays mild and mostly dry before snow develops […] The post SnowBrains Forecast: Colorado Weekend Snow Favors the San Juans appeared first on SnowBrains .

Opinion | Rosmarino and Underwood: Dowd Junction shows how Colorado can build housing for its workforce

In Eagle County, like so many mountain communities across Colorado, the people who teach our children, care for patients, maintain roads and keep businesses running increasingly struggle to find attainable housing near their jobs. The county estimates it will need 6,375 additional affordable workforce housing units over the coming decade, nearly half of them in the Avon-Vail corridor. If the people who make our communities work cannot afford to stay, those communities lose more than workers. They lose the vibrancy, character and the foundational stability that dedicated community members provide.
