HISTORY
During the early to mid 1800s, there were many nomadic Native American Indian tribes stationed at the foothills in Boulder during the winer months. Some of the tribes included the Southern Arapaho, Ute, Cheyenne, Comanche, and Sioux Indians.
The earliest documentations of European pioneers in the region were gold prospectors who appeared in 1858, during the time when Boulder belonged to the Nebraska Territory. The Colorado Territory was later formed in 1861. Boulder City was then incorporated in 1871 and two years later the railroad stretched outwards to the city. The first school house in Boulder was constructed in 1860 and the University of Colorado at Boulder opened its doors the very same year Colorado achieved statehood in 1876.
