John is already on top of this change (do you have a GNIS feed set up or something? ), but I hadn't seen any mention of it.

I wasn't aware of the campaign to move the name, but I'd have supported it. The unranked 12er (https://listsofjohn.com/peak/969) that was formerly named Chipeta is so inconsequential compared to its 1K prominence neighbor, one of CO's 300 highest peaks, and it is virtually invisible from the Arkansas Valley. Ouray and Chipeta now stand proudly, officially, as a pair of prominent peaks at the south end of the valley.

Kudos to the applicant from Salida (here's his project site: http://www.chipetamountain.com) for getting this approved!

I check for new GNIS names every couple months:


Here's an interesting recent entry:

LoJ is cited as a source for the unofficial name that is now accepted as an official name.
