Thanks so much folks! I have already bought and downloaded the Mountain Directory West & East Combo, just now, thanks to the inputs. Might as well. We like to travel all over and it's not that much. I appreciate all of the inputs!
On our way back from Phoenix, I asked a fellow RVer the least steep way to get back to 40E. They suggested Globe to Show Low on 60, then to Holbrook. It was raining till I got to the switchbacks with high winds and scattered snow/sleet. With the grades, being dark, and not being able to turn around anywhere by that point, I was in a state let me tell you. Luckily the truck didn't get too hot and there was zero traffic (smarter people) so I could ride in the middle of both lanes. If I could find that person again, let me tell you, there'd be words! Had a small panic attack going across the confederation bridge a few years back too. Best thing about that was the road construction in the middle of the dang bridge where it went to one lane and we had to stop and wait. You know on that bridge that there are wind warnings right. Lol. Yellowstone to Cody wasn't great either. I wish I didn't have this fear, but I own it and I do realize it's hard for some to understand. One thing is for sure. You guys are great and I appreciate it.
