Skyline Drive Scenic Backway

Scenery along the steep spine of the Wasatch Plateau affords the driver alpine vistas of stony mountaintops towering over the tall pines. You can see the Oquirrh Range, the Tavaputs, Mount Nebo, and the spectacular Roan Plateau from the peak. Keep your eye on the road though, as you traverse 10,000-foot high ridges barely wider than the road itself. The road intersects two other scenic drives, and all three offer developed campgrounds, lakes, and fishing.
