BLM 186 has no official name. The Bureau of Land Management designates it a "B" road, which receives maintenance from time to time. It is suitable for any high-clearance vehicle in dry conditions. It follows along the top contour of the first bench that starts to form the famed Book Cliffs. On the north side of the road are towering cliffs, and on the south side, erosion canyons give a short and quick glimpse of the lowlands and provide a unique experience and contrast compared to the roads that access them. At each end of the road is private ranch land, and while there are several areas to pull over and camp, nothing is pre-disturbed.
