(Copperone @ Oct. 29 2006,18:09) This is a very scenic area. The first 22 23 miles are paved and then hwy 88 turns into dirt. Hwy 88 runs all the way to Roosevelt lake. About half of the road is dirt. But... if you're into boating, fishing and the lakes, there are three lakes alont the route: Canyon, Apache and Roosevelt Dam. This whole area is one of my favorite places in Arisona.
