- The Vail Trail
- Founded by George Washington Knox, Sr. on 15 October 1965, The Vail Trail was Vail’s first newspaper. George Knox Sr., who was affectionately known as “The Skipper,” took care of all aspects of the newspaper’s business. In 1969, the family formally reorganized the family business. George Knox, Sr. was named President of the Knox Publishing Company, in addition to being the hands-on newspaper publisher and editor. Allen Knox served as Vice-President of the Knox Publishing Company, in addition to being the photographer and the advertising and business manager. Ella Knox was Secretary-Treasurer of the Knox Publishing Company, in addition to writing a column and being the circulation manager. When George Knox, Sr. passed away in 1975, Allen Knox took over the helm of The Vail Trail. Sharon Brown was the newspaper’s first employee outside of the Knox family. After the Skipper’s death, early managing editors included Bill McKeown, Mark Huffman and Allen Best. As The Trail’s longest-running employee, Joanne Morgan was responsible for many of the outstanding covers of The Vail Trail. Mike Rawlings was the longest-running in a line of excellent photographers. As noted by former Eagle Valley Enterprise editor, Kathy Heicher, David O. Williams, was “one of the best journalists in the valley” during his service at The Vail Trail. Spin-off publications included The Eagle Eye (1973 – 1975), edited by Sharon Brown, and The Daily Trail (21 June 1998 to 29 December 2000), edited by David O. Williams. A recurring theme in the Vail Valley Voices oral history of The Vail Trail is that the Knox family respected their journalists and always put editorial first. The Vail Trail was purchased by Colorado Mountain News Media and its parent company, Swift Communications, in February 2004. David O. Williams and Laura Chiapetta-Thompson were the last managing editors of The Vail Trail. In 2008, “Vail’s Greatest Newspaper Since 1965” closed its doors.
