 The highway continues along in this direction for some time, passing Mineral Bottom Road, and drops down in elevation.The route makes a hairpin turn in the mountains, entering the South Fork of the Sevenmile Canyon.While traversing the canyon there are several view areas along the highway overlooking both Sevenmile canyon, Dead Horse Point, and two rock formations called the Monitor and Merrimac Butte, both named after warships in the American Civil War.
