Despite the proponents’ fanciful notions of “stewardship values” and “decolonization” as justifications for renaming, there is the reality that there never has been a known Native American name for the mountains known as the Gore Range.
The efforts of the proponents have resulted in the fabrication of the name Nuchu Range, one without historical precedent and certainly never before applied to the mountains of the Gore Range.
In this respect, there never has been past Native American activism for renaming the Gore Range except from recent promptings by proponents.
This renaming idea is rather centered among the decolonization group that professes to be offended by the Gore name but strangely does not have the like perception to the same named derivatives of geographical features such as Gore Lake, Gore Creek, Gore Pass or Gore Canyon.

A Grand County commissioner on Tuesday condemned a proposal to change the name of the Gore Range.
Grand commissioners briefly considered a proposal from Summit County commissioners that would rename of the mountain range the Nuchu Range. The 75-mile-long range spans across Grand, Routt, Eagle and Summit counties.
Commissioner Merrit Linke made it clear he does not support the effort, and he doesn’t think it’s worth the board’s time to even discuss it.
