About The Curious Onlooker

Sunset – Great Salt Lake – Utah

The Curious Onlooker (TCO) is a website that focuses on interesting people, places, and things.  The primary focus is the intermountain region of the United States (such as: Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, etc.), but other interesting people, places, and things are spotlighted as well.  Why is the Grand Canyon so amazingly beautiful?  Was Butch Cassidy real and, if so, where did he come from?  Who are the descendants of the ancient Anasazi today and where do they live?  Who were the first white men to reach the American West?  Who was Geronimo and why did US paratroopers shout his name before jumping out of airplanes?  What brought so many white settlers to the mountains of Colorado?  Was the “Unsinkable Molly Brown” a real person?  All these and more are spotlighted on www.thecuriousonlooker.com.  Pull up a chair.  Stay a while.  Let your curiosity run.  We’re sure you’ll find some interesting…people, places, and things.
