Seattle to Vermont in December
Gpt to do it, want to spend Christmas with the kiddos so what route would you suggest, would I 84 to I 80 be better than just taking I 90 across? Coming back in Jan won't be an issue as we have tons...

Thanks again, we have decided to leave the RV at home and take the car. If the weather maps look bad,stay put, or drop down to I70 after Denver. If it looks really bad,we'll hit 40, but I think we will be fine as we have nothing but time·
Good idea! Especially since you don't have a time restriction.
A particular trouble spot to be aware of (staying on I-80 all the way) would be in Wyoming between Rawlins and Laramie and between Laramie and Cheyenne. Separately, these two stretches can get shut down due to blowing/drifting snow, not necessarily during a storm, but afterwards. And they frequently get shut down together. Laramie and Cheyenne can become landlocked during such times, with all routes in/out of each closed down. Fortunately, it doesn't last too long, but just something to be aware of. www.wyoroad.info is the best place to check conditions through Wyoming.
While it can also happen in the stretch from Denver across the Colorado Outback to Kansas on I-70, it's not as likely as it is in Wyoming.
