 Although the two-lane road follows along the Rio Grande between Candelaria and Presidio, the river is largely obscured from the road by farm land.Approximately from Candelaria, the road reaches Ruidosa where the road passes directly by the ruins of an historic adobe Catholic church and intersects the Pinto Canyon Road, an unpaved county road to Marfa by way of RM 2810.Along the remaining to Presidio, the road passes through the former communities or ghost towns of Chinati, Adobes, Indio, and Ochoa.
