Cool find.
From minute 3 to minute 4, that is on the El Rosario mesa where the steep grade began to drop down to town.

Some of the film was developed in reverse... everything was backward, including the curve from the mesa top down to El Rosario... it was a hard left on the old road, not a hard right!
