Where Cotopaxi, Colorado
Got its Name
The town of Cotopaxi, Colorado
was named for the world's high-
est active volcano, 19,498 ft.
Mt.
Mt. Cotopaxi, in Ecuador.
Cotopaxi, near the Equator, is
just a few miles from the only
place in the world where the
latitude and the temperature
both read 0 degrees. It was
given this unusual name by a
Portuguese immigrant, Emanual1
H. Saltiel who developed the
Mr.
Cotopaxi mine around 1877.
Saltiel had mined in Ecuador
and the mountain peak visible
from here resembled the snow-
packed volcano in Ecuador.
