On the north side of Omak from Hwy 97 turn east onto Engh Rd. You will go past the Mormon church, and continue for 1.2 miles. Turn right at Orchard View Drive Road, this is the cemetery on your left. It looks like at least an acre on the corner, across from nice homes.

Sagebrush, jumping cactus and cheatgrass prevail in this cemetery. I found it very sad to see this huge area of wasted cemetery space left to go without any care and use.

I walked this cemetery on Jul 19, 2002. Those with an asterisk * are believed to be buried here, but I found no marker.
