Land Directions

From Tucson or El Paso, head toward the AZ-NM state line and take Exit 5 at Road Forks, NM and head south on rt 80 (your only choice). Now really WATCH your dad-gum SPEED, because the first 5 miles are heavily patrolled and the 55 mph speed limit is lucratively enforced! Continue on for about 27 miles to rt. 533, a right turn at the Chiricahua Desert Museum (WiFi and Verizon hot spot here). Go 3/4 mile on 533 to where it crosses the AZ line and angles NW. The property is about 2.5 miles up Portal Rd., on the left.
