Two miles before reaching Valley Wells, the paved road curves away from a dirt road leading off to my right
The dirt road appears to be a leftover alignment of Excelsior Mine Road from when the paved road was re-rerouted to join the Cima Road crossing of Interstate 15. It probably doesn't get much use these days.
