On the east side of Ketchum, SH-85 crosses into Delaware County. Shortly after crossing the county line, the route turns north. The road crosses the Duck Creek arm of Grand Lake, then turns east and then northeast before returning to a due north course. SH-85 then passes through the unincorporated settlement of Cleora.
