The Potash Moab Scenic Byway starts at the junction of U.S. 191 and UT-279 (Potash Road).
Watch for signs for the Poison Spider Mesa Trail (which is well worth your time if you want to explore the area a little more in-depth). Just past the sign, you'll see another pullout where dinosaur tracks are visible.
From here, Potash Road is a graded dirt road. If you have a high-clearance vehicle and the road isn't muddy, you can continue on into Canyonlands National Park.
