‘Mysterious’ Vietnam War Memorial






Vietnam veterans memorial on Sargents Mesa
“Cycle ride from Tomichi Creek off of Highway 50 near Gunnison, CO up to the Continental Divide, where we found this war memorial tucked away in seclusion. You won’t find it on any maps. An old local at the Tomichi Trading Post said the Park Rangers keep it off maps…the story is that a Vietnam Vet somehow used a chopper to sneak the pieces in.

I wonder how many more small memorials there are for Vietnam. I like this one because it also acknowledges the SE Asians we fought for.
