Part 2:

Spoiler- This is (apparently) the first 17 miles out of Chama, towards Cumbres, -foiled- by DOT-NM. Unless you know where the ROW is, it's pretty farcical. If you're a hardcore C&TS fan, it's fairly enjoyable. Nice mountain ride.

ROW on the right, to the first crossing, left, to the second. Where Jason ("my man Friday") calls out 9000 feet altitude, the Lobato Trestle is just over the hill, to the left. The gate is, of course, at the state line.

Pardon the occasional verbal indiscretion.
