Houston to Billings, MT... What route?
Greetings,
We are making a move from Houston to Billings, MT, and I am looking for the best route. I am pulling my fiver at about 11,000 lbs. i will unload whatever is unnecessary, and put that into the moving van to make it as light as possible. We are not driving the moving truck. Mainly, I am interested in the route from Houston to Denver. From there up, it does not appear that there are options.
So if you can tell me about the route from Houston thru College Station, Abilene, Sweetwater, Lubbock, Amarillo, Pueblo, and up to Denver. Hwy 287 & 87. My concern here is the section from Pueblo to Denver. Looks like some big hills that I can avoid on the other routes, but it looks like a less busy route.
The other option is Waco, Fort Worth, Wichita Falls, Amarillo, and then up thru Pueblo to Denver. I-35 & I-20
Finally, just straight up thru Dallas, Oklahoma City, Wichita, Salina, and then due West to Denver. I-35 to I-40.
Any information on the route from Denver up to Billings is great, too. There just appears to be only one logical route for that part.
Did I mention we were making this trip in late January? All help appreciated.
