Tucson to Vegas

93 looks like a fairly straight shot. Anyone run it? Any do's or do not's? Better options? Thanks in advance. Oh, forty foot fifth wheel with plenty of truck.
  • catch 93 on the northwest side of Phx off I 10 at 303. Good route.
    There is a little Gov. camp ground up near Wikiup called Burro Canyon. Water and dump station. Nice and quiet and pretty desert canyon country.
  • This time of year;

    If you want to bypass metro Phoenix (which I prefer) coming from Tucson I take I-10 to I-8 at Casa Grande to 85 at Gila Bend to I-10 to 95 at Blythe. Stay on CA 95 to 93 into Metro Las Vegas.
  • I took your route in March of 2014, except at Quartzsite, we went up Arizona route 95 up to I-40. Then crossed over into CA, then got on US95 north to Las Vegas.

    But we were looking for scenic byways, and AZ 95 was much better than US95 in Cali.
