Kodak House Overlook Trail

The Kodak House Trail is a short paved walk to an overlook on Wetherill Mesa in Mesa Verde National Park in southwest Colorado.

The trail head is reached by riding the Wetherill Mesa tram. It is one of two overlooks, along with the Long House overlook, that can only be reached by riding the tram.

Kodak House received its name from the camera that was stored in one of the rooms by early investigator Gustaf Nordenskiold. When he first examined the site it had already been severely damaged by pot hunters.
Kodak House sits just below the rim of a large wide canyon. The site has a two level structure and about 70 rooms and 6 or 7 kivas.
