Will Rogers Shrine of the Sun is Spencer Penrose's tomb, taking the rather unique form of an 80-foot observation tower on the side of Cheyenne Mountain. It overlooks the Broadmoor Hotel and from the tower one can see the entire Colorado Springs metropolitan area and Garden of the Gods. Persuaded not to name the structure after himself, Penrose called it instead the Will Rogers Shrine of the Sun, honoring his friend who had died in 1935.
