James Ridge
James Ridge is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 2.625m (8,612ft) above the sea level, located in Otero County, New Mexico, in USA.
Located within the Lincoln National Forest, the road to the summit is gravel in good conditions. It’s called 16 Springs Canyon Road. It can be a reasonably easy drive in favourable dry conditions, but also has the potential to be a very difficult muddy and slippery track -and at times impassable- after wet weather. At the summit is a lookout tower.
