Very Large Array (VLA) observations of the (1,1) and (2,2) transitions of ammonia at 1.3 cm made toward VLA 1, the exciting source of the Herbig-Haro 1-2 system are presented. The morphology of the dense gas resembles an X-shaped structure, centered on VLA 1 with its waist aligned parallel to the bipolar outflow axis (which is in the north west-south east direction). There is radial velocity difference of about 2 km/s between the north west and south east halves of the X shaped structure, with the north west half being blueshifted with respect to the south east half. The relationship of this structure (with a radius of 10,000 AU) with a small scale (100 AU) circumstellar disk that is believed to surround VLA 1 is discussed.
