Nevada Route 93

Does anyone have some feedback on taking Route 93 from Twin Falls, Idaho, south thru Nevada to end up at Penaca, then 319 east to Cedar City, Utah. It looks pretty desolate on the map, just looking for options to get to Zion NP from Oregon. Traveling in a 24' Motorhome, no toad, and may need a campsite en route. It has a couple of mountain passes, too. I just recall last time we traveled in Nevada en route to Carson City, it was pretty desolate. Thanks for any info.

    Been from Hwy. 50 down 93 to Penaca and 319 that changes to 56 at Utah to Cedar City and it's a good two lane road. I have herd that 93 from Twin falls Idaho is a good road and yes it's a little desolate.
    Their is gas in Twin Falls, Elko and at Ely, NV.
    Their are RV parks in Ely and Cave lake SP just east of Ely and a nice SP at Penaca ( Cathedral Gorge SP )

    US 93 is a great two lane highway. Yes, you need to keep an eye on fuel gauge as there is some fair distances between stations.
    No good options other then running the interstates.
    Doing similar route first of May.

    Do you take 318 south of Ely and then hook back up to 93 at Crystal Springs?
