Anyway, this is cemetery near Morrison, CO. No, it is not the actual Morrison Cemetery(however, it IS nearby). These are just a few pictures I got of it. This place was really interesting because it's out in the middle of nothing. I'm not used to seeing that here(CO), whereas it's fairly common at home(MD).
Sorry the pictures are fairly small. Blogger automatically resizes them. :P
These photos were taken January 2013.
This is the way to and from the cemetery.
Cemetery from a distance.
Area surrounding the cemetery.
This is coming up the path to the cemetery. Notice there are 2 fenced off areas.
Approaching.
Approach where the fence is down.
Inside.
Wooden marker leaning against the fence. Nothing written on it.
Another wooden marker against the fence.
Wooden marker still in the ground.
One of two stone markers. Obviously this one has been repaired.
The other stone marker.
Lastly, this is the only thing present in the smaller fenced off area away from the main cemetery.
Nothing especially weird about this place other than it sits in the middle of nothing(although that middle of nothing is actually the middle of a park). Nothing seemed particularly out of order here, and these might be the first surviving wooden markers I've ever seen in person.
Interesting. Good that it still exists there, relatively undisturbed.
ReplyDeleteYou should see all the old west history that's out in a state park not far from here. Native American pictographs, homestead foundations, graves, rock quarry and old railbed, plus remnants of an old stagecoach stop and a stagecoach trail that is so precarious a portion of it is called The Devil's Slide, etc. So many weird incidents and deaths up there, it is quite possibly haunted, lol.
