This is a great ride, with lots of twistys, starting at 4600ft peaking at 8000ft.
The road is only open from Late May through October, with the Fall colors showing in Late September and October. The cost is $6 for a 3 day pass to the area, so you can plan on doing it a couple of times.
If you go in the morning, you will miss most of the traffic, as it is a popular route.

Beautiful ride, but you have to be paying pretty close attention. There are a lot of spots that are barely a lane and a half wide, and sometimes it is surprisingly heavily traveled. Watch out for trucks pulling campers!

This is a summer/fall ride only and closed in the winter. The scenery is amazing and most beautiful from the top to Provo Canyon (Hwy 189). The road is narrower on this side so be alert for oncoming vehicles that hog the road. Stop at Sundance Ski Resort and walk around. If you go south on 189 from the Sundance side, you will see Bridal Veil Falls, another great photo stop.
