History
Fossil Butte Cemetery is an old cowboy cemetery in Southern Wyoming's Great Divide Basin which was in use between 1864 - 1901. It is the cemetery that lies in the center of the 100-square mile devil's trap built by Samuel Colt. The railway lines were made of cold iron and at each of the points were five abandoned frontier churches to further ensure that it was demon proof. The Devil's Gate in Wyoming appears in the back of the cemetery in the guise of the Colt Mausoleum and can only be opened by the Colt. After Jake Talley opened the crypt and released Azazel's demon army, the devil's trap surrounding the cemetery was broken.

After being convinced to follow Azazel's plan in exchange for royalty, Jake Talley made his way to the cemetery to use the Colt to open the crypt when he was stopped by the group of hunters.

After Dean and Bobby turned the gun away from Ellen, Sam shot Jake Talley repeatedly until he was dead, however they had to take cover since the door had been unlocked, unleashing hundreds of demons and spirits into the world.

Trivia
- The Great Divide Basin was seen on the map bearing the locations of the five churches. Despite the fact that the Great Divide Basin was seen on southeastern corner of Wyoming, Fossil Butte, which is a national monument, is on the other side of the state in southwestern Wyoming.
- Samuel Colt was seen working on the railroad lines in 1861 to surround the cemetery, but the dates on the entrance date it as far back as 1864. It can be assumed that the cemetery was placed there after the crypt was built to further conceal its secrets.
- Sunrise, Wyoming was revealed to be 20 miles away from where Samuel Colt was working on the railway lines by the postal road. The year that 6.18 Frontierland takes place in 1861, however Sunrise, Wyoming didn't exist until 1898.
