Mesa Del Contadero: Heavily armed caravans passed beneath the black mesa on the east bank of the Rio Grande. Located on the northern edge of the Camino Real's Jornada del Muerto, this region remained relatively uninhabited until after Forts Conrad and Craig were established nearby in the 1850's. This landmark derives its name from a narrow passage through which livestock were herded and counted.

San Pedro: By the mid-19th century the village of San Pedro was established near this location and had become a welcome and important trading center along the Camino Real as it passed along the east bank of the Rio Grande. San Pedro, once renown for its extensive vineyards and produce, is now abandoned and in ruins. Like many similar villages, its existence and historic role are largely forgotten.

Carthage Tokay-Farley: Important coal-mining towns existed from the 1880's to 1925 when the mines were closed. Originally developed by the Santa Fe Railroad and later operated by the Carthage Fuel Company mainly to fire the Kinney brick kilns in Albuquerque, Farley was a limestone quarry. The Hilton Mine belonged to the father of Conrad Hilton.
