We drove down to Glenn Springs and visited the cemetery; across Glenn Draw on the Black Gap 4X4 road. There are at least 10 graves there; but they are not maintained, very sad. On the way out we drove up Juniper canyon road to Dodson Trail and Juniper Canyon Trail Trailheads.
Saw some back country campers along the road going in, looked like a good quiet place to camp. Nice road going in, takes a while though.
We drove the Glenn Spring Road in my Jeep Wrangler from north to south. Glenn Spring was a bustling community in the early 1900's. There are no buildings left standing today. At the site, the Black Gap 4X4 road breaks off the the west.
