Kingman to Cottonwood, Az
Anything to be cautious of pulling a 24 foot TT from Kingman, Az to Cottonwood, Az via 40 to 89 to 89a into Dead Horse Ranch SP? 89a looks a little curvy and I am guessing there is an elevation gain? Thanks!

- Best way is I40 to Flagstaff, I17 South to the Cottonwood exit (exit 287). Parts of 89 and 89A are very steep with switch backs, other parts just switch backs. Avoid Jerome and 89A Flagstaff to Cottonwood as said previously. Length limits on these are 40 feet or less if I remember correctly.
Dave - Dont go through Jerome and dont take 89A south through Sedona. "A" is for adventure. :)
- You have all the curves because you are climbing a mountain to get to and down from Jerome. According to Google Maps it is only six minutes longer to go the I-40, I-17, AZ-30 route though it is 30 miles farther and much easier.
From the Mountain Directory West: Going north on 89A (towards Jerome from Prescott/Chino Valley) you will encounter 4½ miles of 6-7 percent grades with 15-20 MPH curves and then 2 miles of 4 percent grades to the top coming down you would come through Jerome with some very narrow streets and an extremely sharp curve and a short section of 10-12 percent grades and then 3½ miles of 6 percent grades with sharp curves going down to Cottonwood.
