About Del Norte, CO

Del Norte is named from the river Rio Grande del Norte, or "large river of the north". The Utes were the first-known people to live here, particularly in the summers because of the abundance of wild game, plants, water, and timber in the area. However, winters were often too cold and harsh for them to settle permanently. Spanish and Mexican peoples were the first non-Natives to explore the land around Del Norte, coming from Santa Fe and other parts of New Mexico. They were interested in surveying the 'Rio del Norte' or 'River of the North', hence the origin of the town's name.
