FS 14/Blue Bucket Road goes from FS 16 in the north down towards Drewsy in the south. When the road leaves the national forest, its name changes from FS 14 to Blue Bucket Road. The road is a well-maintained gravel road suitable for most any vehicle; the primary hazards are significant washboards in places, dust, and blind curves.

North of the intersection with FS 1663, the Forest Service is clearing the understory and most mature trees in a roughly 150-foot swath along the road to provide a fire defensive line for future wildfires. The immediate result is an opening of the forest along the road, making for a more scenic, almost park-like area.

There are no campgrounds along NF 14/Blue Bucket Road, and while dispersed camping is allowed, there are no obvious places where people have set up dispersed camps.
