History

edit

The Courier began in 1955 as Smoke Signals, a monthly bulletin published by the Indian Hills Fire Department.[1] The paper was purchased in 1958 to begin weekly publication as the Canyon Courier.

In October 2016, The High Timber Times, founded in 1977, was merged into the Courier.[2][3] In May 2021, The Colorado Sun and nonprofit organization The National Trust for Local News became joint owners of The Canyon Courier along with over a dozen more local newspapers previously owned by Evergreen Newspapers.[4]
