The cemetery is 60', by 100' along the north and 90' on the south end.
The east end of the cemetery boarders the freeway right-of-way.
The fence is 5' 5" high, with a single strand of barb wire on the top, with 2" x 4" cage wire for the remander.

This cemetery is not maintained.

There was a fire that came through about 1997-1999. It killed 3-4 juniper trees in the cemetery. It only appeared to damage one small Spilsbury mortuary marker on the Worthen Earl Gregerson grave (located at the north end of the cemetery; row 3 at the fence).
