Favorite driving roads?
I'm loving having my s2k. What are everyone's favorite roads to drive on in Utah?
My favorite so far is the Mirror lake highway. I also love the traverse mountain road and I make regular runs up Millcreek Canyon since it is 5 min away from my house.

Many good ones. Favorite? I go up Ogden canyon then over Trappers Loop. The frontage road to Peterson then up HWY 84. Off at the second Henefer exit then double back through Henefer. Left to East Canyon reservoir. Drive around reservoir then take farm roads back to HWY 84. Then down Weber Canyon and back home. It is both scenic and twisty.

The alpine loop up Provo canyon is pretty fun. Downside, you have to drive through Provo. On the bright side you just have to drive through the northern tip so you don't have to deal with all the crazies down by the mall and university. Emigration canyon is fun as well in Salt Lake City.

+1 for Emigration canyon.
In central Utah, I just did the wayne county loop that comes off I-70 and goes through the little towns of Loa, Bicknell, and Torrey. The route takes you through the San Rafael Reef, mountains, green fields, and capitol reef national park. Awesome scenic drive with lots of curves and hills.

...emigration canyon to 65 left on 66 to morgan. and 35 into the Uinta or 150 towards mirror lake both starting around Kamas.
If you ever have a reason to go to Durango and want to OD on hairpins, 550 heading North is a wild drive... wiki description:
This stretch through the gorge is challenging and potentially hazardous to drive; it is characterized by steep cliffs, narrow lanes, and a lack of guardrails; the ascent of Red Mountain Pass is marked with a number of hairpin curves used to gain elevation, and again, narrow lanes for traffic—many cut directly into the sides of mountains
