This memorial is just off the road and may hard to find. This is a dirt road adventure and go slow because of dust and dips in the road. BLM land and the site is very interesting and looks like it has been updated recently.
A tribute to this person and the program. Sign the register in the box that you were there.

This memorial is a tribute to Major Michael Adams who was killed when the X-15 aircraft he was testing for the space program crashed at this location. My husband is an X-15 aficionado and has wanted to visit this site for some time. We sought it out about 10 years ago, but weren't able to find it. On this trip, we went armed with more detailed directions. (Note that the map on this Tripadvisor page does not show currently show the correct location.) To find the memorial from US395, turn north on Trona Road between Red Mountain and Johannesburg. It's almost exactly 4 miles from US395 to the access road; look for a dirt driveway on the west side of the road. When we visited, there was a small brown stake with X-15 printed in white. We were able to negotiate the dirt road with a low-clearance passenger car, but conditions were dry and I don't think I'd want to attempt it in wet weather without 4WD. The memorial is only about 1/4 mile west of Trona Road, so it would be possible to park on the shoulder and walk in. At the site there is an X-shaped concrete pad with a monument and several educational panels about Major Adams and the X-15 program. Some visitors who have come to pay respect have left memorial tributes. There is no entrance fee or any facilities at this location.

Boy, this place is hard to find. Finally, I found the right dirt road on my third pass on the main road. Look for a bright orange fiber optic short pole with a stacked of rocks next to it as a marker. You need to drive slow to see this so be careful with traffic behind you. As you travel on the dirt road, you should see the little brown road makers with X-15 on it which confirms that you are on the right road.
The memorial goes over the history of the X-15 and the life of Major Michael Adams. You get to see some very interesting pictures.

If you visit this monument, it is because you hunt it out, it is not easily found. From the 395 turn onto Trona road, exactly 4 miles (to the 1/10) there is a dirt road that exits Trona road to the west. It is marked with and X-15 on a BLM road sign (see one of the photos attached to this review). It is an unimproved road but with a car, you should be OK. We stopped by here just after sunrise on November 14. We were the only ones there. It is a nice memorial to Americas first in-flight space program fatality. There is a marker memorializing Major Adams and informational signage about the X-15 program. Informative and well worth the short drive from 395. Total time at the memorial with drive time to and from 395, 30 minutes.
