Lookout Mountain Proposed Gates :29
It’s one of the most popular viewpoints on Colorado’s Front Range, but Jefferson County officials say people are causing a long list of problems. Jeffco Open Space, along with other county officials, first responders, and Denver Mountain Parks, have proposed adding gates to Lookout Mountain Road. The gates would only block access through park properties, which is just a little over 4 miles. The county held a meeting in December to gather feedback from stakeholders and the public and plans to hold more throughout the winter months.
