Pine Gulch Cemetery (39-27.658N, 105-23.853W)

Overall: Could not believe this is pretty much right in our backyard - fairly small and does not appear to still be in use.

Oldest Grave: William M. Fleming, 1880 ; Gravestone

Photos: Pictures on Photobucket

Observations: As indicated before, this is pretty much in our backyard. As with most cemeteries in Colorado that date to the Gold Rush time, it does not appear that all of the graves are marked. Those that are there are in decent shape.

Not a whole lot to say about this one - just kind of there and more interesting for us being close to us.

I'd say we have at least found on the map at least 7 cemeteries within about 10 miles of us.

Further Research: Does not appear there is any active restoration going on, but due to proximity may check back from time to time...
