Buffalo Bill











Buffalo Bill's
grave atop lookout mountain just west of Denver. His wife buried by his side.





I cannot imagine a more grand place for any human who walked on this earth to be laid to rest than atop a mountain like Buffalo Bill here. This is a burial for a god.

  1. Thought you'd appreciate this:

    got out
    hit the road
    at dawn's first crack

    full tank
    saddlebags
    leathers on my back

    sunrise
    fresh new wind
    pocket full of jack

    look down
    endless road
    and never look back...

    I'm really glad you made the way to see it. The first time in CO I was driving around and saw the sign...not that I'm a Bill fan or anything, but I was alone and bored and curious. The drive up and around the moutain were breathtaking, the views absolutly incredible, and at the top to find this grave? Yea, it was cool. Touching. I knew you would like it. CC Cristy
