Utah -- Hwy 20 from I-15 to Hwy 89 in snowy weather?

Just got back -- it did snow up on 20, so we went through Zion on 9 to 89. Not my first choice, but safer under the circumstances.

I have not towed on 20 so not sure what its like snow or no snow with an RV. Chance for snow Saturday along your route but temps should stay well above freezing until night fall. As long as you're off the road before sundown you shouldn't see snowy roads.

Fred, thanks for the tip! We will have to wait and see what things are like on Saturday -- the Utah Dept of Transportation posts real-time reports, and if there is snow up there, we will probably take the long way around.

You can click on Google.com

Then click on Terrain and you can get the elevations of the roadways. It can give you some idea of how steep it might be too. Remember that Bryce is at around 8,000' elevation, so it might have a lot of snow up there, even if St George is raining. I have only gone to Bryce via Zion and the tunnels, then it is relatively level going up to Bryce.

Once I made the 'mistake' of returning on highway 12, I think and crossed over a 9,600' elevation pass. There was snow left over on July 4 weekend!

DOn't take that road.

Fred.

We take UT-20 several times a year, including every December for Christmas. I have 4WD, and won't take it if the road gets icy. Let alone tow over it. With that said, if it's only snow showers, you'll probably be okay. They will salt it and scrape it.

From Google Maps I see that Bryce is higher than any point on UT20. NOAA point weather forecasts are essentially the same.
