This is Chipita Falls.  It's named after Chipita, the wife of Chief Ouray
of the Ute Indian Tribe.  She and the Chief were invited to Washington
D.C. to meet with President Rutherford B Hayes.  President Hayes
called him "the most intellectual man I've ever conversed with."  Which,
of course, didn't stop him from screwing the Ute's out of their land.
