Picture
William F. Buffalo Bill Cody
The Buffalo Bill grave and museum are popular places of interest for visitors. Buried at Lookout Mountain just west of Denver with a wonderful view of the city and the great plains to the east. A cement mound over the top of the grave and a iron fence around it protect the site from intruders.

The question is, why was Cody buried at Lookout Mountain instead of Cody, Wyoming, a town he founded to accommodate tourists departing form Yellowstone National Park. An early will instructed his heirs to bury him in the Wyoming town bearing his name.

A later will left the burial details up to his wife. Some say she was coached, and coerced into picking the Colorado burial site. When rumors surfaced that the Wyoming group planned to move the body to Cody, Colorado placed armed guards around the grave until a deeper hole could be dug and the present security measures could be added.

Legend has it that his wife said, "It was the only way I could keep him at home."
