Trip from Flagstaff to Hurricane, UT.
What is the best route to take from Flagstaff, AZ to Hurricane Utah and then on to Heber City in our Class A motor home and pulling an SUV? Are the grades really steep? Should we go via Las Vegas?

For the flattest route.
Flag to Page on 89
Page to Kanab
Kanab to Fredonia
Fredonia to Hurricane
Hurricane to Toquerville, continue north to I-15
Go north on I-15 to Provo, then take Exit-272 (Hwy 52/800N) to Hwy189 to Heber.
Cameron has a lot of construction going on right now with the roundabout they are installing (and all that money wasted on street lights). The 89 is rough as you approach the Tuba City turnoff so watch your speed in that area.
If you are wanting to avoid hills, do not go north from Kanab to Panguitch and take the 20 over to the I-15. Fun on a bike or in a car, not so fun for a big rig. I have no issues with it personally.
Your big hills are;
Uphill, Big Cut on 89, ~32mi south of Page.
Downhill, 12mi hill, ~12mi south of Page.
Uphill, near Paria Movie Set, ~37mi north of Page.
Downhill, dropping in to Hurricane, slow speeds and curves
Uphill, climbing out of Toquerville
Uphill, as soon as you get on the I-15
Uphill, Black Ridge, I-15 between mm 32-37
