“Long had in mind the building of a stage road through Raton Pass…What I proposed to do was to go into this winding rock-ribbed mountain pass and hew out a road which barring grades, should be as good as the average turnpike.”

— Richens Lacy “Uncle Dick” Wootton, 1864, on the Mountain Route of the Santa Fe Trail
