This is State Road 554, and you go approximately 12 miles on this road until you reach El Rito. The college is on the left side of the road (look for the water tower). You should see the dome-shaped Observatory in a field on the left just before the campus. At the first college driveway on the left. Drive to a T, turn left and go past some buildings and into the field where the Observatory is located.
