Iosepa

In the heart of Skull Valley lies Iosepa. It isn't my intent to discuss the history and lore that surrounds the place. Suffice it to say that any group of people that would have made a town and livelihood in this place deserves respect. You can draw your own conclusions regarding my opinions of the current residents...........ranchers and Goshutes, who with the benefit of modern technology have managed to do far, far less.

The overgrown condition of the area surrounding the cemetary is depressing. The lack of green space (trees, grass, etc.) within the cemetary itself is heartbreaking. Even though the town ceased to exist almost 90 years ago, there are still descendents, that feel a connection with this place, that are being buried there.

Water is surely available. Perhaps a sprinkling system can be constructed for grass. At the very least some drip irrigation for some trees. There is one tree within the cemetary struggling to make it.

Within a few weeks, I will be contacting some people affiliated with Iosepa. I would like to make a small suggestion, and a modest donation of course.
