Description: The Yost Escarpment Trailhead sign, just off of Upham Road east of Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, and a mile south of Spaceport America. The El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro (Spanish for "The Royal Road of the Interior Land") is an ancient travel route between Santa Fe and Mexico City, whose use started in the late 16th century. The portion that travels through New Mexico passes through an arid desert known as the Jornada del Muerto (Spanish for "Journey of the Dead Man"), within which was recently created a National Historic Trail. Portions of this trail are open for hiking.
