Bicentennial Highway (UT-95)
164-mile state highway from Hanksville southwest to Blanding through some of southern Utah's most remote canyon country. Completed in 1976 for the U.S. Bicentennial, the route crosses over the Colorado River at Hite (Lake Powell), passes the only vehicle access to Natural Bridges National Monument (three massive sandstone bridges named Sipapu, Kachina, and Owachomo), and travels through the Bears Ears landscape. Fully paved, lightly trafficked, long stretches between services. Officially designated the Bicentennial National Scenic Byway.
