I was planning to stay overnight at the playground by the military post in Cerocahui when got advised by one of a tourists guide at Centro(where I was watching Iglesia) to think about coming here and car RTT in the parking lot of Mirador. It was getting late and when I left at was 4 pm and sun was setting in. it took me around 1 hr to get here. Glad I came. Beautiful view of Urique river winding thru the Canyon valley. Gorgeous views. Gravel road drive here is windy, steep, pretty smooth but bumpy here and there. I did not see. many cars driving thru. couple of old lumber trucks smoking dark black smoke pass by. spent a long, quiet night. Nogales cell or WiFi signal available.
bathrooms in the parking lot were locked up for the night.

UPDATE to road conditions from Divisadero: the tarmac runs until just past Cerocahui then it's a well-graded, level gravel road. From here down to Urique the surface is good and even, but it's steep, with many tight hairpin bends and very narrow in places.

Brilliant views, very quiet at night, a few tour operators in the day. The road is excellent from Divisadero Adventure Park to Bauchivo from there the road is rough and interesting. Bathrooms open during the day. Free camping . Great place to spend the night before descending into Urique.
