Jumping off the bridge at Baker's Bridge is technically trespassing, note the fencing! Way different when I was a kid! You need to engage a local to give you the INSIDE information. I remember living at Fort Lewis when it was located in Hesperus. My first cabinet job in 1987 was in the Ranch (nice home), just down the street on Latigo for the developer of Elkhorn, Gene Haskins! Did the cabinets for the developer of Edgemont Highlands. My son is working in all the subdivisions you are referencing as a licensed sub. We kind of know the area! There are locals hanging at the Rec Center! Some of the new lots you are selling around The Glacier Club (Tamarron) were created when I sat on the PC. And most all of the one's across from Purgatory saw my eye before they were recorded. You mentioned Edgemont Highlands, which was also reviewed when I was on the PC. All now very nicely developed subdivisions. Locals enjoy the really severe winters as it tends to thin out the riff-raff. And unfortunately as things are now shaking out if you can afford property in Durango and the North Valley you can afford a condo in Scottsdale! So many of these multi million dollar properties are second and third homes of the very wealthy. Thus the shortage of hanger space at the airport for the well to do. The people who are buying this real estate don't need a mortgage!
@@twofjs6334 My understanding is only on the north side. I'd love to connect and grab a coffee. If you grew up here you definitely know a lot about the area!
Yes, the Grid is the downtown area. I have some good videos where I cover it in more detail. If you haven’t seen them feel free to shoot me a text and I send you the links to those. 970-431-0008 or the number in the videos.

Do these cons take this area off the list for you? 🤔
Sounds like heaven on earth to me 👍
Oh it 100% is! Thanks for watching and commenting Curtis!
Baker's Bridge is beautiful. I love how blurred the area is...🤪
Haha, it is. I was going for the cinematic effect but not sure if that was the best move because it is so amazing there. Thanks for watching!

Thank you, there's a lot of information on this video.
What about "the grid" area? Is that downtown Durango?
My pleasure! Thank you for watching and commenting!
