Northern Nevada Peeps?
I'm going from Pollock Pines to Elko. What would you recommend, 50 to 580 to 80 or 50 to Alt. 95 to 80?

I am very familiar with both routes and I would go 50 to Fallon then 95 to 80 and onto to Elko. Very good condition wide highway all the way and you of course avoid all the traffic in reno. You also avoid all the heavy traffic on 80 east of Reno/Sparks to the Reno Sparks Industrial Park at Clark on 80. Fallon is easy drive thru town with 4 lane main street and no heavy traffic. I80 east of Fernley to Elko is easy drive all the way with light traffic.
After you reach Carson City there are no steep grades and switch backs. 95 is straight and wide with no normally heavy traffic up to 80. There are some short steep switch backs just east of Austin on Hwy 50. I am not familiar with 278. Cheers from the rodeo.
