It is located about 5.4 miles Northwest of San Ignacio, San Miguel County, New Mexico, and is difficult to access due to the steep mountainside terrain. The site was chosen by Alice Barker Turner shortly before her death in 1893 and hers was the first burial at this site. It was badly damaged in the Calf Canyon/Hermit Peak fire of 2022. Some of the memorials were damaged by the fire. It is approximately 1/10 acre measuring 60 feet (E-W) and 72 feet (N-S) enclosed by a four foot tall curved top wire fence.
