<div dir="auto">Thanks, Brad. It is a pass, as there are two identical signs in opposite directions, 175 meters apart. The pass may have a name, after all, which is on another sign.

I think you should check your data. Looking at USGS topo, that
point does look very close to the continental divide. <br>
Usually, but I suppose not always, when you go over the divide you
are going over a pass. This one seems to be fairly flat so perhaps
never got named. <br>
I don't use mapillary, but according to the USGS topo loaded into
qmapshack the divide crosses that road at<br>
N35.005307° W108.081164°<br>
<br>
I have seen a similar sign in NM that wasn't on the divide & I
assumed it was a joke put up by a local prankster, but this one
seems right.<br>

<div dir="ltr">I have now checked on Gmaps: that sign is not on
the continental divide, but it is announcing the continental
divide. About 175m further there is an identical sign on the
other side of the road, and facing the opposite direction.
Hence there is a pass, but the highest point itself is not
marked. I have added a mountain pass in the middle between the
signs with a provisional name, which I will have checked by a
local, whom I happen to know.</div>
<div dir="ltr">.The "Continental Divide" is not a pass, but a
watershed that is several thousand km long.<br>
