DescriptionA metal gate with a barbed-wire fence attached to wooden posts in Dawson, New Mexico. A sign attached to a wooden post beside the gate reads, "No Trespassing" and a larger wooden sign attached to another wooden post near the right of the frame has peeling paint but the words say, "To Dawson Cemetery" with an arrow pointing to the right. There are tall grasses along both sides of a dirt road beyond the gate. A hill and bare-limbed trees are in the background.
