Yes, it's legal to bury someone, or not even bury them, on your own property in Colorado. Doesn't even require much ground, I think it's around 8 acres. One of the big trends here is what's called a "green burial". No embalming, no casket, not even buried, just laid under a tree somewhere all natural. There a couple places around boulder where you can go pick out your tree to rest under.
That's called composting.
