It is a beautiful, winding mountain road with good quality pavement. The side-trip to Cascade Springs is well worth your time, and, if you don't mind dirt road, there is a free back entrance from Midway.

This road can be combined with Guardsman Pass and Pine Canyon Rd. out of Midway for an excellent afternoon ride from Salt Lake City to Thanksgiving Point.

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!

Wasn't as spectacular as had hoped. The road dumped us out on US highway, but it appears to continue on as another state road. Never found it!
