This road is actually a pretty nice graded gravel road. You can totally ride this on a cyclocross bike or use for a bikepacking trip into AF Canyon from Midway. It is strange that the main road coming up from Tibble Fork is so much more rocky and difficult, I guess this gives good access to the canyon from the Midway/Park City side.
A common stopping spot is at the summit called Pole Line Pass. There is a big dirt parking area, and a lot of ATV, Dirt Bikes, and groups congregate there.
