Lookout Mountain, Mountain summit in Golden, Colorado, United States.
The 7,377-foot mountain peak provides views of both the eastern plains and the western Rocky Mountains within Jefferson County.
Native American Ute tribes utilized the mountain as an observation point before European settlers arrived in the Colorado territory.
The Buffalo Bill Museum at the summit contains exhibits about William F. Cody and documents the American frontier period.
Visitors can access the mountain via the Lariat Loop National Scenic Byway, which features 56 curves along its 4.6-mile switchback route.
The Chimney Gulch trail intersects twice with the Lariat Loop road during its ascent to the mountain summit.
