Beginning from the Visitor Center, Campground, or Faraway Ranch picnic area, this 1.2 mile/1.9 kilometer leisurely walk leads you through the Faraway Ranch Historic District to Stafford Cabin, built in the 1880s. You'll see Silver Spur Meadow, home for Civilian Conservation Corps Camp NM-2-A, Company 828 during the 1930s. The fireplaces are remnants from the lodge of the Silver Spur Guest Ranch in business from 1948 to 1968. Stream crossings can be hazardous during winter snowmelt or summer monsoons. This is a dog-friendly trail.
