This rocky road leads you on a long approach to the Organ Mountains. You can climb the Tooth and the Organ Needle from here. The hike from La Cueva is nicer (and shorter), but the La Cueva lot doesn't open until 8am and for the aforementioned hikes you will want to start much earlier than that. Make sure you bring plenty of water and good navigation for the upper parts of the trail, and have fun!
