Station on the Denver & Rio Grande R R twenty-six miles east of Durango in
the Pine Kiver Valley. Ihe postoffice and townsite are one mile north of the
station. It is surrounded by fine farming land. The Southern Ute Agency is
located one and three quarters mile north of the station. It was the seat of
government of the old Ute Reservation located here under Col Page in 1875. It
comprised forty townships along the southern boundary of Colorado for the
Confederated band of Utes under Chief Ouray. In 1895 about 70,000 acres were
allotted to the Indians and the balance thrown open to settlement. The
Confederated Band of Utes have abandoned the reservation except the Moaches and
Capotas. There are here now about three hundred and sixty Indians under Chief
Buckskin Charley.
