The Durango Telegraph is an independent weekly publication based in Durango, Colorado.[1] The Telegraph began publication on August 22, 2002.[2] Founded as an alternative to the region's dominant daily newspaper, the Telegraph was named after a popular local mountain bike trail.

The Telegraph features reporting on environmental, recreational, political, arts, and entertainment news in the Four Corners region of Southwestern Colorado. It also features regular opinion pieces under the header La Vida Local and original political cartoons. The paper is distributed every Thursday to stands in and around Durango at no cost, thus spurring its marketing tagline "Free but not easy."

The Telegraph also publishes the quarterly magazine The Gulch, dedicated more to stories, long-form journalism, and photography than the weekly newspaper.
