In the center of Pitkin turn north on LA 463 and go about 10 miles. The cemetery sign "Old Mt Moriah Cemetery" is easily visible there at the left side of the road (Dousay LP). Go approximately .1 mile west to the dead end at the Shrubbery Ln Sign the turn left and go apprx .2 mile. The road at the entrance to the cemetery is faint and just west of the only house you will pass. You must keep a sharp eye out for the access road. There is no sign but you turn right, north, and the cemetery is about a 10th of a mile down the road.
