Standing Stones

South East of town at about 40 30 57 N 105 03 37 W
there are these stones on a hill (looking North).

View from the East
These stones were obviously placed here on a hilltop by man more than fifteen years ago. Their purpose is not clear, but many scholars believe the monument was used as a ceremonial or religious center.
Compare with:

Pentre Ifan
Slightly older standing stones in Wales.
