Mount Evans, the Colorado fourteener in Clear Creek County that was named after the state’s disgraced territorial governor John Evans, now has a new name.
Mount Evans, the Colorado fourteenervoted 15-1 on Friday afternoon to accept the proposal for the new name, which was one of six suggestions for the Front Range peak in Clear Creek County that’s prominently visible from across metro Denver. Three board members abstained.
“We must better face the dark history of the Sand Creek atrocities by honoring the lives that were lost,” U.S. Sen. John Hickenlooper said in a statement applauding the decision. “Renaming one of Colorado’s tallest peaks to honor the Arapaho and Cheyenne people is an important step forward.” The Northern Cheyenne Tribe in Montana opposed the change, saying the name “Mount Blue Sky” could be considered sacrilegious because a Northern Cheyenne ceremony uses the “blue sky” words and concept. The federal voteso the tribes could consult with one another about the disagreement, but they did not reach a consensus.
