litigator Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Is there any worthwhile alternative to the super-slab for the first 80 miles? Link to comment
eddd Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I'm assuming you are going to head up to Las Cruces, north on I25 and then take 152 into Silver City. 152 is a great road, but to answer your original question, no good alternatives. Link to comment
litigator Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 What about that Route 9 that goes along the Mexican border and then going stright up 11 and 180 to SC? Link to comment
notacop Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I'd call 152 an excellent alt. What a buncha fun in the unstraight part. Link to comment
litigator Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 I'm going to do 152 again on my way East, so I'm looking for something new on the way back West. Link to comment
litigator Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 152 was shockingly treacherous. They had just put down gravel and oil to re-surface the road. Every turn was a challenge, and I don't mean that in a good way. I will not go back that way tomorrow. The "Loose Gravel" signs were no joke. At times it was like trying to do maneuvers in a deep gravel parking lot. I'll take a dirt road over gravel on top of pavement any day. Link to comment
