Route Thru the Big Horns

This has probably been covered many times, BUT - short answer: We're traveling from Devil's Tower, WY to Cody, WY then Yellowstone this coming July in a 34 foot class A gas motorhome towing a car. We've driven Hwy 16 from Buffalo to Worland on to Greybull and on to Cody and remember the grades. My question: Is that still the easiest route, preferable to Hwy 14 Sheridan to Greybull? Not familiar with Hwy 14. How are the grades and curves compared to Hwy 16? Thanks.

Why would you subject yourselves and your vehicle to that kind of abuse?

The easiest way from the Tower to Cody is taking US 212 to Custer Battlefield - Crow Agency, then up I 90 to Billings and back down US 310 to MT 72 to WY 120. About 400 mi and 8 hr trip. It's a bit longer and MUCH SAFER. Plus you'll get to see the Battlefield and Billings (Costco) along the way. Gas was always cheaper in MT than Cody.
