I run Eastern Washington to Mesa every year for 20 years.
Snoqualmie problem is the heavy traffic and speedy drivers (just over it yesterday eastbound).
I84 is an easier and less stressful route. Cabbage Hill is not a problem, just a long climb. Never found it difficult in my DP towing. That would be my route.
That said, it's all about the weather. Unlikely to be an issue in early November, but you never really know. Check the Oregon highway website and look at the cameras for Cabbage Hill, Meacham, and Baker city to see what the conditions are. If it's snowing, wait a day.
SLC is a topic for another day!
