That one structure looks like a drive on concrete 'lift' for vehicles to be serviced. Small ramps at the start, bump stops at the end. About wheel width spacing and high enough off the ground to get under it with ease. At least that is what it looked like to me.

I was just getting ready to say that. It is an oil changing area. There is one very similar to it in a small Oklahoma community near me. I will bet the forest service used it for the vehicles used to get the fire tower look outs up there.

So that "structure" at 14:24 looks to me, like something you could service vehicle on. Like what most would call a "pit", where the vehicle could drive onto, then from underneath, you could change fluids and do basic maintenance without the hassle of having to jack up the car/truck. It's quick, easy, and safer and much cheaper than "lifts/racks" or hand lifting a vehicle. The raised center beam would keep you from going off center and fall off the sides. The tall "block" at the end keeps you from fall off the end. There are walkways on the sides you can walk across while the vehicle is being serviced, that you can still access the doors. There's even a staircase to walk down to the "basement" to get under the vehicle. At least, that's what I see. It's the quick lube area for forest service trucks. A metal detector in the area might yield some random 'car parts'. Just a guess?

I think the same thing. My grandfather used to own a construction company in NH and he built something very similar. I once used it to replace the alternator on my 1993 Nissan 300zx. Very convenient, especially if you have a lot of large machinery!

A buddy and I are planning on going to NM end of the month but the fires are still crazy and we might have to call an audible. We were thinking about coming up to Broken Bow and then on to the Ozarks. Would be up there 4 days. Would you recommend this area end of May/start of June or is it just brutally hot and humid? We are also hoping to get some good fishing in kind of along the trails as we go - are there decent spots along the rivers to cast?

It just depends on your skill level and what you’re wanting. Ozarks are more rugged tight trails with lots of water crossings and deep mud. Ouachitas are mostly wide graded roads with nice views.
