 Michigan Highways: Michigan's Route Markers
From the earliest times of numbered and marked state trunklines in Michigan, the standard state route marker has been the shape of a diamond with a block letter "M" in the upper corner.
These early route markers would either be erected on stand-alone posts or on telephone and electric line poles along the highway.
In the 1950s and 1960s, the route marker remained much the same, albeit the numerals are rendered in the standard FHWA typeface.

 Michigan Highways: Michigan's Route Markers, The Clearview Future?
In the late-1990s and early-2000s, a brand-new highway sign typeface, Clearview, was developed and tested heavily in Pennsylvania and Texas to replace the familiar FHWA typeface, in use since the middle of the 20th Century.
In the vast majority of the new guide signage installations, MDOT has been retaining the FHWA typeface for all route markers, so it seems the old font may be around—at least for the route markers—for awhile longer.
However, a few route markers have cropped up during 2005 featuring the Clearview typeface along I-69 near Marshall, although these errant markers may be due to contractor error.

The section of I-15 north of Tremonton reminds this writer of the alignment used by I-5 in Calfornia's San Joaquin Valley: the freeway hugs the the barren hills at the edge of the valley, leaving the fertile farmlands on the flat valley floor unbothered by the freeway.
