Originally called “Medicine Butte,” the mountain and surrounding areas served as sacred Indian hunting grounds. In the late 19th century, it was a way-point for early American settlers heading west along the Overland Trail and other routes. In more modern times Elk Mountain Hotel served as home to the infamous Garden Spot Pavilion. It was here that performers like Louis Armstrong, Lawrence Welk and Tommy Dorsey inspired hundreds to “jump on and ride” the magical dance floor. Visit Website
