Above Montano is a bit more scenic, but if you can tolerate a bit of traffic and make your way to the village of Corrales, it's pretty nice, too. They have a pretty strong horse culture, so they are attuned to the unexpected in the road and are very obedient to the village speed limit. (As a sort of related side note, there is litter all the way up to every national park I've been to, but just outside it stops dead . . . no conspicuous litter patrols, just a change in attitude and behavior, I think.)
