Protecting the Lone Tree Bluffs
The last wild mesa tops and trails on top of the Lone Tree bluffs are under threat from a massive new housing development. Once it’s built, this view — and the wildlife that call it home — will be lost forever.
Why This Matters
This site was created to bring clarity and transparency to the proposed Hillcamp development.
Hillcamp is a significant project on and near the Lone Tree bluffs — an area that plays an important role in the identity of our city. Projects of this scale have the potential to shape how Lone Tree evolves for decades.
The bluffs aren’t just open space. They’re the heart of our community — a sanctuary where neighbors hike, ride, reflect, and reconnect with the Colorado we love. Every sunrise over the East/West Trail reminds us what matters: open sky, quiet trails, and the wildlife that still moves through this landscape.
The goal here is simple: make it easier to understand what’s being proposed, where things stand in the process, and how to stay informed.
