South Table Mountain, Mesa summit in Golden, Colorado.
South Table Mountain features a flat cap created by ancient Paleocene lava flows, rising to an elevation of 6,338 feet above sea level.
The first documented climb of South Table Mountain occurred during the Colorado Gold Rush on February 14, 1859, marking the beginning of recreational activities.
Native American tribes left archaeological remains on the summit, indicating their presence and use of the mountain throughout previous centuries.
The mountain offers multiple access points through trailheads at Golden Hills Road, Camp George West, and Rimrock, connecting to a 3.3-mile loop trail.
The mountain contains numerous zeolite minerals within its second lava flow, with specimens displayed at the Mines Museum of Earth Science.
