We’re new to this forum and snowbirding. Found an RV spot near Phoenix for 2 months but I’m a little nervous about the idea of towing our trailer over the Siskiyou’s in January. Looking for the safest route to take from Seattle to Phoenix in January ( we will have lots of time, just want to get there alive lol). Would love any suggestions.. Thank you!!
If at possible, change your trip schedule to one earlier or 1 month later. I drive:
1. I-5
2. East on hwy. 58 out of Bakersfield
3. south on 395 to I-10
4. East on I-10 to Ariz.
This is the way we went from BC at the end of January. The only bad spot we had was the pass east of Bakersfield. We stayed over in Bakersfield due to high winds in the Tehachapi pass. A tractor trailer got blown over, glad we stopped for the night. Road reports can be had on govt dot websites to keep you up to date. Many passes have webcams you can access on line as well to assess the area in question.
