The Danforth Hills rest north of Meeker Colorado, and are home to a collection of hills, none of which exceed 9,000 feet in elevation. These hills are home to several Native American relics leftover from the 19th century struggles between the Native Americans and early-American pioneers. The Meeker Historical Society has some writings concerning this area and period of time, which contained one of the most historical battles of that time-period: The Battle of Milk Creek.
