Boulder Creek is open for tubing, and during Boulder’s relentless summer heat, the cold current running through the center of town feels better than ever. As of August 12, 2026, Boulder County reports that there are no current restrictions on tubing or single-chamber flotation devices. The USGS gauge at North 75th Street registered a flow of approximately 64 cubic feet per second Wednesday afternoon. That places the creek near the lower end of the commonly recommended tubing range. Conditions can change quickly, however, and an open creek is not the same thing as a risk-free creek. Any…

Reflections of the surrounding trees, Colorado sky, and historic stone bridge shimmer gently behind them. They appear completely comfortable in the moment—close, connected, and enjoying one of the most peaceful corners of the CU Boulder campus. A Historic Boulder Sett…

There is something about a clear summer day in Eldorado Canyon that stops you in your tracks. Golden sandstone walls rise dramatically above South Boulder Creek as the water catches the sunlight, tumbles over rocks, and moves through willows along the canyon floor. It is pure Front Range summer—water, stone, and sky coming together in one unforgettable scene. South Boulder Creek begins high along the Continental Divide near Rogers Pass, where snowmelt and alpine runoff collect in the mountains west of Boulder. The creek flows east through rugged terrain before reaching Gross Reservoir, a …

Boulder is rewriting the record books this summer—and not in the fun way. As of mid-August 2026, Boulder had recorded 23 days at or above 95 degrees, setting a new calendar-year record. The city had also reached 100 degrees six times, tying the annual record set in 1954, while 40 days at or above 90 degrees had already accumulated. The most startling number came on August 3, when the Boulder Municipal Airport climate site reached 104 degrees. That tied the location’s all-time high and established a new August record. The latest totals were compiled by BoulderCAST from local climate o…

Boulder is famous for the Flatirons, its extensive trail system, and an unmistakably independent spirit. Less widely recognized is the city’s surprisingly influential literary history. Major American writers have lived here, taught here, or transformed Boulder into a setting for memorable fiction and nonfiction. The result is a city that has quietly punched above its weight in American letters for more than a century. Allen Ginsberg, Naropa and Boulder’s Beat Legacy The most consequential chapter began in 1974, when Allen Ginsberg and Anne Waldman founded the Jack Kerouac School of Di…

Today’s Outdoor Picture of the Day captures one of Boulder’s most distinctive foothills scenes: the rugged Red Rocks formations viewed from Sanitas Valley Trail. Rising above the surrounding landscape, the warm sandstone fins create a dramatic contrast against the trees, open sky, and softer slopes of Mount Sanitas. While Boulder’s Flatirons receive most of the attention, Red Rocks offers its own remarkable display of Front Range geology. The formations belong to the Fountain Formation, the same ancient rock unit that created the Flatirons and other famous Colorado landmarks. The sedi…

Add a warm meal in Nederland, and you have one of Colorado’s best autumn days. When to See the Fall Colors The…

Colorado’s most populous cities—Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins, Lakewood, Thornton, Arvada, Westminster, Greeley, and Pueblo—account for the bulk of families seeking Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for children with autism. The CDC estimates roughly 1 in 31 eight-year-old children are identified with ASD. Early, intensive, individualized intervention produces the strongest gains in communication, adaptive skills, and daily functioning. Colorado’s Health First Colorado (Medicaid) covers medically necessary ABA for children under 21 through EPSDT at no cost when authorize…
