Thumbs up for another chance to resurrect the Elkhorn Cemetery.

Rep. Denny Rehberg has picked up a previously failed effort to convey the property from the U.S. Forest Service to Jefferson County so it once again can be used. His bill would correct what Rehberg called “an unfortunate survey error.”
