The first burial in Rock Creek Cemetery was in 1874.  To get to the 
cemetery go to Monte Vista, CO on US Hiway 160. Turn south onto 
Broadway (at the stop light and Dairy Queen). Go south a little 
over 2 miles and there will be a small sign on the west side of the 
road that says Rock Creek, this should be 2S road. Turn west on 
this road and go 2½ miles west and then about 2½ miles south and 
you will see the Rock Creek Cemetery sign, turn west onto the dirt 
road and the cemetery is about a quarter of a mile.
