Sounds like snow is on the way so I'd take I-5 down to Vancouver, then pick up I-205 to east Portland where you can get on I-84. Take I-84 all the way eastern ID and then work your way to SLC. Be very careful around Pendleton and Baker City in eastern OR, the highway gets real slick there. Your best bet is to contact the Oregon DOT for info, they have excellent web sites. Am recommending going south to Portland rather than over Snoqualmie 'cause you won't have to worry about snow as much, at least for that portion of the trip. Do you need to take the Class A, seems like travel by car or whatever would be better at handling road conditions this time of the year.
Yes, Class A. It is my only home away from home especially when travelling with the dogs. Company is less inclined to make exceptions when they provide hotels. Opting out of hotels brings in a small amount extra anyway. It helped pay off the MH early. I have seen the need for a Class C for the places I go to. Even more so the need for a nice B class conversion since I tend to stealth camp in the urban areas. A decent B class can cost me more than I paid for this beast. But I'm getting off-topic. I would much rather hit any pass with my truck but I'm not gonna live out of it with a dog unless I have to.
