I'm looking for suggestions for loop routes through these states, coming from and to Albuquerque, that do not involve very steep roads. We are pulling a 27 foot trailer with a gas rig, plus are rather new at all this. We just don't feel comfortable crossing tall mountain passes as of yet. We'd like to find a few bases to operate from on the East side of the Rockies, then over on the West side, where we can set up camp for a few days to explore without having the trailer behind us. We'd love to get up to Teton and Yellowstone as well. I have ordered the Mountain Directory so that should help with planning too. In the meantime, your suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.
How much time do you have allotted for such a trip, and what time of year? Have you been in either areas previously? Makes a difference as to adequate responses. If you have weeks available (like 6 weeks or more), responses will be different than if you have only 2 weeks to leave and return to Albuquerque.
