Glad I followed through and saw this first list - where Utah's spectacular scenery gets the credit it deserves. You can't tell from the pictures, however, just how spectacular some of the scenery you can see from the roads is. And I would definitely add the Alpine Scenic Loop, which goes through Provo Canyon, up past Sundance (and Robert Redford's home), through the world's largest living thing (a mountainside of genetically identical quaking aspen trees), past Timpanogas Cave, and out into Utah Valley. Combining the two lists, adding a few more roads, and lots more pictures would result in a spectacular coffee-table book or web site.

Really? I live in Wisconsin and can attest that driving through Illinois is the most miserable, boring, monotonous part of every road trip I've ever been on. There is certainly a lot of beauty to be found in the Midwest, but not a whole lot of it is in Illinois. Yuck, Illinois? Really?

Sea to Sky Highway. I know your going to get a billion on what you didn't cover, but not a single road in Canada was feature is disappointing. I can’t believe Vancouver’s Highway 99.
