Up on a bleak hillside outside of Fairbank, one of our local "ghost" towns, lies an old cemetery consisting mostly of rock piles and makeshift wooden crosses with several stone tombstones scattered here and there. The tombstones are real, draped with turquoise rosary beads, but the wooden crosses and stone cairns most likely exist for the benefit of those that visit this remote historic site.
There's also the eerie stuffed toys, their origins unknown, weathered and discarded, staring vacantly at whomever passes by from atop the mounds of rocky graves, also placed there to provide ambiance for the occasional tourist.
