From Canon City: Go east on US 50 to the junction of Colo Hwy 67 north of Florence. Turn north (left) on CO 67 for 1.6 miles to Fremont County Rd 123. Turn east (right) on 123 for .3 miles to the junction of County Road 132. Turn north (left) on Rd 132 and follow it 8.2 miles. The cemetery is on the right side of the road at the green gate.

The Upper Beaver Creek Cemetery was established about 1883.

I visited this cemetery and did a headstone transcription on 14 May 2000, of all existing stones. Note: There were six obvious unmarked graves in the Upper Beaver Creek Cemetery.
