The town of Ouray was named after Ute Chief Ouray, who worked for years to find peaceful resolution to the escalating conflicts that were occurring as more and more white people poured into the region in the 1860’s and 1870’s. Prospector’s first arrived in the Ouray area in 1861. After discovering placer gold, some stayed the winter of 1861-62 in the canyon that would later be the site of the town of Ouray. It would become the supply, social, and cultural center of several rich mining districts at high-altitude and forbidding terrain above the town (https://westernmininghistory.com/towns/colorado/ouray/)
