After veering off of Lefthand Canyon onto James Canyon Drive, you can enjoy a long climb up (or fast, fun descent down) a road with a wide shoulder between steep cliffs and hills and a creek. Although this isn't a particularly long climb up to Jamestown it's consistent, so finally reaching Jamestown (and the Mercantile) is a welcome treat.
