The worse part is getting onto the road from Paseo De Peralta Street onto Bishop Lodge Rd. It's a very tight turn, then another tight turn onto Artist Rd. which becomes HIde Park Rd. Just be prepared for some tight turns, shouldn't be a problem.
Hiking Santa Fe Nat'l Forest Santa Fe & Bandelier Nat'l Mon't area of New Mexico -A Trip Report 2012. This was in August.
Los Alamos is a very neat small city in itself. Free bus system with very neat buses. Very pretty setting up in the high country. Somewhat of a gated community as well. We only drove through & stopped at a SuperMarket. A nice town.

Santa Fe (Eating):
We had very good Asian from
Jinja Bar & Bistro in Santa Fe last summer. Just stumbled onto it in a thunder/rain storm. We did carry out, but it was a very nice restaurant. Went back last summer (2014) & ate in the restaurant with our daughter & grandson. All enjoyed the food.
Someone at the AAA office recommended
Tortilla Flats in Santa Fe; it prove to be very good as well.
Normally, we would eat on the Plaza, from Cart Vendors, such as Roque's Carnitas.
Cart Cuisine, but they were not there that week-end. Due to the 'Santa Fe Indian Market', "a 91-year-old Native art market", we didn't find the normal street food venders on the Plaza. We did eat once at one of the 'Indian' vendors, but the lines were extremely long. Also at a roasted corn vendor.
