Cannesdo: In your other post you're concerned about driving CO 160 to Colorado Springs from Durango.
Some of the above highways mentioned in this post could possibly give you some serious thinking to do.
You might consider getting the 'Mountain Directory' for a mile by mile read on some of the mentioned highways. Then you'll know what to expect.
Mountain Directory
Been looking for something like that -- thanks! Are you comparing the cut-off road from Phoenix through Payson (Peyson?) with Wolf Creek pass? I don't mind long uphill grades as long as they're not 6.8's. I've taken on a lot of passes, I just don't enjoy them. Too worried about the truck temps. But I love driving and am good on narrow roads.
