Russ,

The BV paper was, and is, The Chaffee County Times, going back to the early days of the town, though it's real focus for years has been Buena Vista itself and it's been a weekly for some time. The Salida paper, The Mountain Mail is still a daily (though I'm sure it struggles like most papers these days), and typically covers more county issues.

Similarities? Hmm. Seems BV and Salida are generally supporting this effort now. Creede's attitude is one I've never understood, the "bubble-gum-chewing, tomahawk-wielding flatland touristers" having long since arrived by other means as you note.

Scott
