This is an easy, 1/2 hour hike to a really interesting pioneer graveyard which includes the famous Doc's grave. Nice for a lazy afternoon. More

The short hike uphill was worth the visit to this old, seemingly abandoned cemetary. Even though the main attraction is Doc Holliday's "supposed" grave (signs will tell you they are not sure where he's buried up there, but they have a gated monument for him), the experience with reading all the old, run down tombstones/graves are so worth it!

Not his actual gravesite, but we knew that going into it. He is buried somewhere in the cemetart though. Those on the committee to construct a 'memorial' for him did a great job. Nothing 'cheesy' like gun slinging pistols & cards or anything ;) Way to go Jim Hawkins! If they've had any snow or moisture, the trail can be... More

I had no idea how far Doc Holliday’s Grave was from Hotel Colorado (which is where we stayed during our trip to GWS). We had asked around and the guy said “oh, just take 12th street and it’s up about 5 blocks”. Okay, ya, that is where the trail to the grave site begins. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE... More
