Several markers erected since the 1970s commemorate sites along the Overland Trail. These include the Cherokee Stage Station, the Virginia Dale Stage Station and the spot on the Colorado-Wyoming line where the stage line crossed. Other markers call attention to important pioneers and places in Larimer County. The Antoine Janis cabin, now located at the Fort Collins Museum, has a marker, as do the Flowers house in Bellvue, Auntie Stone's cabin and the Bingham Hill Cemetery. The first gristmill, now part of Ranch-Way Feeds, also has a commemorative plaque.
Some monuments call attention to pioneer communities that no longer exist.
Markers can be found at the Log Cabin site and the old Adams Cemetery, both in the Livermore area. The local marker committee is an especially busy bunch, one of the most active committees in the United States. While it seems obvious that the committee has an interest in local history, there's also a less apparent tradition going on. For two of the women, Clements and Miller, working on the committee means taking up where their mothers left off. Clements' mother was Rist Canyon pioneer Mildred Payson Beatty, who served on the marker committee for many years.
