Mount Evans rises 9,000 feet above Denver. While some note its beauty when looking to the west, others can't see past the peak's name. CB_Cotton takes a 360 In-Depth look into the conversation and renaming process:
In early October, the Colorado Geographic Naming Advisory Board began a process that could result in Mount Evans being renamed. Those spearheading the efforts explained the process could last several months, up to a year.
"This is a very prominent feature in the state of Colorado, and we suspect that there will be significant interest," said Tim Mauck, deputy director of Colorado's Department of Natural Resources. The upcoming meeting on Thursday at 6 p.m. will allow proponents of each name to give a presentation to the board. You can join the meeting through this Zoom link.
Mauck said overall, he's not encountered strong vocal opposition to any of the names proposed; however, he noted some have questioned the renaming process. Reservation visits, powwows, and special ceremonies honoring her Cheyenne ancestors are regular occurrences for Jones and her children. Visits to Mount Evans, though, are not.
"He came to Colorado and saw opportunity for development, specifically with the railroads," Hanson said."And in his mind, one of the prerequisites for that was securing the land for American settlement. In order to do that, he felt like he needed to push the tribal communities off of their Indigenous homeland."
"They pretty quickly both came to the conclusion that Sand Creek Massacre had been — in the words of the congressional report — a dastardly massacre," Hanson said."Evans was forced to resign from the governorship."Jones has hoped the truth of the historical event would become more widespread.
