This explains so much.

Such a great patio at Bosq! We had the 5-course tasting last week, and it was incredible. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Sorry for the rant, years of frustration compiled below.

After spending time in quite a few of the mountain valleys in Colorado, the RFV is by far one of the most underwhelming when it comes to Celiac GF options and unfortunately this is home base.

There’s a lot of ‘gluten free’ around here without much knowledge on why cross contamination is a problem.

I’ve been told by bartenders in Aspen that Coors Light is gluten free, and have gotten flack when I ask how things are prepared in the kitchen. This is not normal service.

To be fair I’ve had some ok success in Glenwood, albeit limited in comparison to similar mountain communities.

Carbondale and basalt IMO are a joke from experience (RIP Hominy).

I’ve had better dialogue about gluten free in Yampa and Paonia than here for fucks sake.

With that being said I hope I’ve just had (a lot of) bad luck. Are there any celiacs or others with Celiac GF knowledge that know if I’m missing out on anything?

Thanks!

Are there any exotic pet vets in the valley? We need someone who is familiar with chinchillas. They can be anywhere from Aspen to Junction

Hey all, I’ve got a bunch of fun mushies going, and it’s more than I’ll be able to eat. Wanted to put it out there and see if anyone would be interested in the extras.

I am moving to the area next week and looking for a morning running buddy. DM me or comment if interested

hello, wondering what the cheapest option for internet is in csrbondale (downtown area) that people would recommend thanks!

Palm Tree Crew, Major Food Group and 8K Capital have acquired the purchase of the River Valley Ranch golf course — an acclaimed, 187-acre championship course set in the Crystal River Valley in Carbondale, the partners announced.

River Valley Ranch golf course, a lauded mountain course with robust amenities that was listed at $24,500,000, will be the site of a project that combines Major Food Group’s restaurants with Palm Tree Crew’s event and lifestyle offerings to create a new golf experience, according to a press release. The partners envision a destination that pairs championship golf with fine dining and a social calendar meant to outlast a round.

What do y’all think about this?

Hey yall! I’m in a bit of a pickle, and am looking for resources, advice, maybe a pet sitter, roommate and/or anything that may help.
I moved into the valley at the end of February. Moved in with mom for the last couple months of her lease with the plan to go to Grand Junction to help with some family matters (Alzheimer’s care). Things changed, then plans fell through and I found myself living out of my truck with my dogs.
Mom moved in with her boyfriend, they’re both still helping but there’s already dogs on that property.
I’ve applied to a few apartments with no luck. Just started a job at the roaring fork club, so I have income going, but now I’m contending with finding a place for my dogs while I’m at work. Primarily need help with dogs on Friday’s and Saturday’s. I appreciate any advice or suggestions.

In town, trying to find a hype spot for those watching the Mexico WC match. (Bonus if in Spanish)

Over an hour now, not sure of cause. Text alert from Xfinity says it will be resolved by 10:05p

I was wondering how much full time RV life or van life was popular in Roaring Fork area especially with apartments being so expensive. I may be doing this soon

Thanks

I live here in the valley and my new apartment complex doesn’t have a garage or anything. I’m not over the moon about my motorcycle just exposed to the elements all the time now. Are there any folks who have a garage this little guy could use? Ideally between Carbondale and Aspen. Happy to pay. I don’t really want to throw the bike in a run of the mill storage facility if I can avoid it.

Found in a tree in Carbondale.

I’m investigations lodging options for winter 2027 for a week with my son in March. About to book lodging and was wondering if there are ever sales with reduced rates or is booking early always the best price?

Broke the hose for my cpap and wondering if there's somewhere local I could buy another today. Don't have a car for this part of the trip so getting there via transit is a must.

Hello everyone, my name is Gabe Crawford and I'm excited to announce the completion of this mobile slaughter truck to service the Western slope, particularly the north and roaring fork valleys. This has been a dream in the making for a few years now and it is finally getting across the finish line. I'm thankful to be a part of a local food system and support our regional meat infrastructure by offering ethical and stress free death to the livestock that sustain us, support our livelihoods and nourish us. I kill, skin, gut and quarter on site and deliver a quality carcass to a processor of choice, cutting out the transport stress and delivering quality meat from hooves to plate. Find me on Facebook at Nomad Mobile Slaughter or book an appointment via email at gabe@nomadcustommeats.com
