History

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 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.[2]
