AZ 99

State Route 99 is an interesting highway. The northern portion of it provides access to Leupp from I-40, however there is a southern segment that runs from Winslow to the middle of nowhere where it just randomly ends and continues as a county road which eventually reaches the Apache National Forest.


Length: 44.3 miles
Existed since: 1969
Current Route: South of Thunder Rd, southeast of Winslow to BIA 15 in Leupp
Major Junctions: AZ 87, I-40, US 180, BIA 15


Cool Features

SR 99's end is actually somewhat undefined. Both signage and the state highway system map shows the route ending just south of Thunder Road. However, most maps and many other sources say that the route goes all the way to the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest border.
