Pine Cemetery is located near the corner of Featherville Road (NF-61) and Sloane Gulch Road in the area of Pine. It was originally located down the valley in the old town of Pine, and was moved to this location during the construction of Anderson Ranch.
The Bureau of Reclamation made a tabulation of the cemetery on Aug. 2, 1948, before it was moved to its present location. This information is found at the Idaho State Historical Library. Area enclosed by fence is covered by weeds, sagebrush and grass, appears to have had little care in recent years. At present area is used as pasture land. These are the 31 graves the Bureau identified in the order (Mounds or depressions are only possible grave sites with nothing more to identify them.)

The Pine Cemetery was transcribed in 1966 by Dean & Iola Stocking and Utahna Randall. At that time they stated that the Cemetery was in poor condition. They noted that a good share of the markers were wooden crosses on which were once names and data, but most were fallen to the ground and the inscriptions were beyond copying. Of those named above, they copied the following graves. Their transcription can be found at the Idaho State Historical Library, indexed under Elmore County Cemeteries.
Daniels, Elsie Virginia
Deckard, Baby
Ethell, John A.
Lester, William
McGuire, John B.
Ottenheimer, Sanford
Schraft, Oscar
Transcribed in Sept. 2007 by Judy Hopkins from visual markers. The cemetery is now [2007] on Forest Service land and the more recent markers are only memorials with no actual burials. The Idaho Snow Riders Club now [2007] maintains the cemetery.
