Highway 89 Detour - Page AZ to Flagstaff
I just returned from the north country for the holiday and took the newly paved 89T (Navajo Highway 20). The road was in great shape and very drivable for any size RV. I think it was actually a better drive than the regular 89 route. There are some 45mph sections, but most of the temp route is 55.
The road surface is in good shape, with nice shoulders. There were no steep grades except for the last mile (heading south) which was about 6%. I'd say the overall delay from the regular route was about 10-15 minutes.
I've never seen this part of Arizona, and the view was very nice. Keep your eye open for pronghorn antelope along this route.
