The road continues to drive along Philmont property until it reaches Rayado. In Rayado, the road turns south and continues past rustic ranches until it reaches a Y-intersection with the old NM 199 where NM 21 heads east towards the ranches at Miami. It then goes 1.5 miles (2.4 km) east, turns north for 1.7 miles (2.7 km) where it joins County Road 6 from Rayado.
