I've only been through from Meling to Mikes a couple of times, and don't know which is the "old road"
Would that be the road that was once labelled as the harder way? After leaving Observ San Pedro highway a few miles, does the "harder way" branche
off to the east then goes north go Mikes while the "easier way" from the junction, goes NE to Mikes. The "easier way" was washed out in few places
that made it a little difficult to find a line. OK say your at Coyotes the only road open now it goes due east from Coyote to Mikes. After few miles
on your lt side the old abandoned shack before trees. If your at Coyotes try to go due North they have fenced it off. Because when you get to Juan
Carlos ranch.He has also put fence up blocking the more easy way. As far as coming down from Observatory road then making Lt turn to Rancho La Joya.
Good luck on that one also on your stock 4x4 rig.The very nice rancho was abandoned (I was told) because) Dark Sky's cut off there water source.
