Since you are detouring anyway, when you get to Fredonia, Arizona, get off 89A and take state route 389. This will allow you to see the very overlooked Pipe Spring National Monument in the Indian town of Kaibab, Arizona.

You'll also get to see the polygamous towns of Colorado City, Arizona and Hildale, Utah.
That is a beautiful road for a sight-seeing driver. (Pipe Springs, not the Mormon towns.)
