ravesites are a little like family albums in that they have the curious ability to remind us that the past was real. It’s one thing to read about the fabled lives and times of a Buffalo Bill Cody or Doc Holliday, quite another to stand in the shadow of their gravestones, knowing just under the ground before you lies a legend. And, unlike living celebrities, you know they’re not running away from a photo op. Colorado is home to some famous final resting places that make for curious destinations and are a “Who’s Who” of American history.
