It's not the end of the world, but you start seeing signs for that exit around Alamogordo.
I spent the longest century of my life in that area, over 3 years. ;)

I drove through that area many years ago at night on a two lane road, after revisiting the Grand canyon and on my way to Carlsbad Cavern. It was an interesting night time drive to say the least!
“...you start seeing signs for that exit around Alamogordo.”
Exit? Alamogordo?
If there is a road with actual exits near Alamogordo, it’s new since my time there (1994-2001). (I guess highway 70 going south might qualify).
