AZ to Jackson Hole or West Yellowstone
What is the quickest easiest way to get to Jackson Hole, WY once I get on I-15 northbound in Utah? I may go to West Yellowstone, MT instead. Do I go up I-15 to Idaho Falls and then take Hwy 20? ...

The route that I like the best going North on I-15(and I have done several) is to get on US 89 just north of Ogden. Or you could go up to Brigham City and pick up US 89 there. I would have to look at a map to see the exit, but I-15 and US 89 gets real close together. 89 is scenic and goes by Bear Lake for a few miles.
We used the later route going in 2010 from Tucson to Tetons/Yellowstone, not a bad route at all. This is at Exit 362 on US 91 to US 89. There is some climbing up and a steep decent down into Bear Lake. Not too hard of a climb or decent.
However, Google Maps has it routed off I-15 in Idaho, but before Pocatello, taking US 30 to Soda Springs, ID then ID 34 E (northward) to US 89 in WY. It is a little shorter in time than the Brigham City, but not much. No idea how the roads are however.
226 mi, 3 hours 55 mins for I-15 N and ID-34 E & 211 mi, 4 hours 6 mins for the Brigham City US-89 N route.
