It is sited within a Ponderosa pine forest, and there is a dry ravine at the foot of the western edge of its courtyard. The ravine is slowly eroding, and a short wall has been built at the top of the ravine to stop visitors from getting too close to the edge. Walkways on the south side of the chapel have recently been paved with concrete, and lead to a rustic wood gate located in an archway at the western end of the courtyard wall. This walled courtyard, extending to the west from the chapel, is an integral part of the building's design. Landscaping within the courtyard includes a groundcover of pine needles and naruraul grasses, along with mature evergreen trees. t The chapel enjoys unimpeded views of Pikes Peak which rises above the valley beyond. It was built in 1929 as a memorial by prominent Colorado Springs resident Alice Bemis
