Not sure if you'd want to incorporate this or not, Fabio, but an old name for this mountain was Mount Clarence King, named for a geologist and mountaineer.

I noticed this on an old diagram on campus at DU. It points out the peaks you can see and the distances to them. I was like "Clarence King"? What peak is that? :)

Thanks, Ryan! I'll add a toponymy note. Any way to tell how old that diagram at DU is?

I don't know, but it is right outside of the oldest building (1890s) on campus. I'll let you know if I find out someday.
