The road was originally constructed as a maintenance road for power lines following the canyon.[4] The drive takes roughly two hours without stops.[5] There are visitor centers in Cannonville in the north, and in Big Water near the southern terminus.[3]
The road is mostly an unpaved, except for nine miles between Cannonville and Kodachrome Basin State Park.[1] It's considered impassable in wet weather year-round.[3]
Many sections of the road traverse ancient seabed deposits of mudstone, silt, and shale. When wet, the clay surface becomes exceptionally slick and even four wheel drive can be rendered useless. Additionally, many drainages cross the road in various locations, and these may wash out during periodic flash flooding, particularly during summer thunderstorms. Even in dry weather, the road can be muddy to the point of being impassable in low areas.[4]
