Lookout Mountain is one of the larger foothills which overlooks Golden, Colorado. Offering a terrific view of the Denver metropolitan area both in day and night, it has long been known for its natural scenery and has played a major role in area recreation, transportation, water supply and telecommunications. It is famous as the gravesite of Buffalo Bill and has several sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its earliest known inhabitants were the Ute tribe of American Indians, who used the mountain as a lookout point upon the surrounding region.
