Johnson Divide Road is a short gravel connector that runs from Johnson Creek Road, FS 278, into the interior of the Idaho Panhandle National Forest. It is relatively well-maintained and two lanes wide, making it accessible to all vehicle types.

Like many roads in the area, drivers should expect frequent small but deep potholes. Dust can also become an issue when encountering oncoming traffic, especially in dry conditions. Scenic views are mostly limited due to dense forest cover, though occasional breaks in the trees and wider clearings provide glimpses of the surrounding landscape.

Dispersed camping is permitted along the road, but the only established site is located at the southern end where Johnson Divide Road meets Upper Coeur d’Alene Road, FS 306.
