Route Description
The route begins at the interchange with I-84 just west of Mountain Green in Morgan County, and travels east for about 1.5 miles (2.4 km), roughly parallel to I-84. At this point, the route makes a turn to the north, becoming Trappers Loop Road, which begins to climb into the mountains separating Weber Canyon and Ogden Valley (the top of Ogden Canyon).
After climbing for 5.5 miles (8.9 km) and peaking at 6,000 feet (1,800 m) in elevation, the route crosses into Weber County and passes SR-226, the primary access road for Snowbasin ski resort. From here, the route winds its way back downhill, to the north, making its way towards the Ogden Valley area. Just before the route enters the valley near Huntsville, it exits the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest (the entire southern portion of the route lies in the national forest). The route then terminates at the intersection with SR-39, just south of Pineview Reservoir.
