I spotted lots of deer, elk, hawks, rabbits, squirrels, and a variety of birds, but not a single person or vehicle other than some road maintenance equipment left behind by weekday work crews.

The road comes out oa the north end of the primitive area at Wall Lake where the w-wheel drive restriction ends and county maintenance begins.  Beaver head is the name selected for the Ranger station near Wall Lake.  From that point, I selected more dirt road heading north and completed nearly 200 miles of backroads coming out in Thoreau New Mexico.  The entire route was scenic, peaceful, and relaxing.  Oh yeah … and dusty.
