When it comes to the bearings, it’s not that difficult, however if you haven’t done it before and your heading on a major trip in the winter, I would take your rig to a reputable outfit and have them do it for you.
And as for driving on winter roads:
Today we were snowmobiling at the summit of the 5th highest mountain pass in British Columbia. While we were unloading, a truck and what looked like a 30+ ft 5th wheel, as well as a Class A motor home pulling a “hugely” long horse trailer.
This was 09:30 this morning and the roads were wet.
Now the farther north you go and or every valley. Region or area that your drive through on your trip will have different wet heat and road conditions, so it may not be as nice as today.
Hopefully you don’t have a specific date and a “ time allowance “ that you gave yourself for this trip, as road conditions and weather can add days to you journey “possibly” If you watch the weather, watch road conditions ( black ice ) and especially “take your time” you will be fine.
and make sure the camera is ready to “click”
Relax and have fun.
If you need any information on driving on winter roads, with your route, or with or with out a trailer, drop me a line, I’ve driving these roads up here Year round for over 45 years and have also camped during the winter in our camper when snowmobiling.
It sounds like a fabulous trip!

Thanks Soup, I appreciate the words of encouragement and advice. I have set hotel reservations but being a Wyndham rewards member i can cancel or change without too much of an issue. I fully anticipate possible delays, but I hope for the best and plan for the worst.
As for the bearings, I will be calling the RV joint I bought my camper at and see what they can do to help me.
