Goat Hill, also known as Bellvue Dome, is a mountain near Bellvue in Larimer County, Colorado, rising above the Cache la Poudre River along its western face. Formed during the Laramide orogeny, it is an anticline, a dome-like fold in sedimentary rock created by uplift and folding. Its striking shape sets it apart: a gradual slope on the east and an almost vertical cliff on the west. Easily recognized from Highway 287, Goat Hill remains a notable Bellvue landmark for its dramatic profile and its visible record of the region’s geologic history, though access is limited because surrounding lands are privately owned.
