Hey guys, back again with another post on our adventures in the amazing state of Colorado. The same day that we visited the Colorado Mills Mall we also made the harrowing trip up (yes, UP!!) to visit Buffalo Bill's Grave On Lookout Mountain.
If you ever have the chance, we highly recommend going. But....have someone who is willing to drive you the first time! My gosh we cannot even describe the scenery, or the sheer terror of the trip up the mountain. There were times when Ahnah had a death grip on the handle in the backseat. It's not comforting at all when you see paramedics with rock climbing equipment heading down the side of a steep mountain in our opinion! 😲
It was worth every single scare though, it was one of the most stunning views of the entire trip.
The main attraction though, Buffalo Bill's Grave on Lookout Mountain did not fail to meet every expectation we both had. The altitude was a slight adjustment for our Southern lungs but it wasn't that bad. Pictured below is the memorial itself, Buffalo Bill sure picked himself a beautiful place to be buried in.
We must have spent an hour or more exploring the grounds and the gift shop....well as tourists we can state it was in our top 5. It definitively had a lot to look at with something eye-catching at every turn. So much to see. We did end up purchasing several small things, and we love the reusable tote bag that we use for grocery shopping ever week. Brings a smile and great memory to our faces. They also had the cutest little cafe with a gorgeous view but we didn't eat there as we had grabbed a small snack at the mall but the menu looked quite enticing.
Overall opinions on Buffalo Bill's Grave on Lookout Mountain=⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We were all smiles as we headed off to our next adventure.
