Another route if you want to avoid the tunnel and the switchbacks going up to the tunnel would be to head toward Hurricane then take route 59/389 to Fredonia and go north on route 89. A bit longer but no significant grades at all.
X2 - just drove this route - no major grades but a few long uphills.
Watch your speed - the little towns are renowned for radar.
If you are an animal lover, you might enjoy stopping at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. They offer a free tour in their vans to see all the facilities they have to care for abused, hard to adopt animals etc. The facilities are amazing and are situated on 3700 acres about 6 miles north of Kanab. Good parking for RV's. The tours last 90 minutes + a 20 minute video. Check them out at
