Tombstone Photographs

The small mining town called Sunshine was established in 1874 and 
the first burial in Sunshine Cemetery occurred in 1875.  To reach 
the cemetery from Boulder take 28th Street (US 36) to Mapleton 
Avenue; turn west on Mapleton and continue west until it becomes 
Sunshine Road.  Continue on Sunshine Road approximately 5 miles 
from Boulder city limits; the cemetery is near the top of a knoll 
on the right and is visible from the road.
