Tucson area to Show-Low, best route
Looking for alternate route to the Salt River Gorge, which though gorgeous, is steep and windy for towing our 30 foot 5th wheel. Is there a route that goes up to the 260 and through Payson? Is that ...

There are some very steep grades and tight turns going the Payson route. We drive the Salt River route with our 5er several times a year. It really isn't bad. I'm quite comfortable with it. The only time it makes me a little apprehensive is on a Sunday afternoon of a holiday weekend. The traffic can get intense.
I've seen many commercial big rigs on that route. Just make sure you stay in the right lane when you get to a passing lane to let traffic clear. Also if it backs up behind you, pull over into a turn out to let it clear. You'll be fine.
