Dan,
I wonder how tricky the road to Cedar Breaks is when trying to get there using one's "whole RV'ing" setup?
We passed up visiting Cedar Breaks once, thinking that we shouldn't try go up there in our small Class C RV. Maybe we should have tried it anyway. The Cedar Breaks altitude is nothing as we've so far traveled up to 11,300 feet in our RV ... it's that I don't like to inconvenience the day trippers around us when we travel on narrow, curvy roads that would otherwise be no problem for us.
I've towed a wide assortment of different trailers and 5ers up the road and it's not an issue. You can easily keep up with the flow of traffic if you have the power. hwy 14 out of Cedar city is the recommended route, but for a couple years hwy 143 was the only option because of a landslide.
As for the Dark Sky thing, Cedar breaks itself isn't all that dark as you can see the glow from cedar city. Drop down to some of the campgrounds on the East slope though and things are fantastic for star gazing.
