At 101 I would head south to Hwy 20 and go east to I-5
Of course you can cut back to 101 and deal with LA...

Stay at a hotel instead of in the RV when you get to Baker or La Grange so you can keep the rig winterized.
You can stay in the rv with it winterized. We just bring a pail of water in the shower to use the toilet. Keep the furnace on for heat. We only use the toilet, so we put a jug of rv antifreeze into the toilet to keep stuff from freezing. It would only be one night until you are out of potential freezing. No need for a motel when you are driving one.

We live in Birch Bay and head south for the winter. We leave the week before turkey day and drive non stop to Salem where we spend Thanksgiving with our friends. We then continue on until we hit the Rolling Hills casino in Corning. From there you should be free of bad weather. Unfortunately, we have to stop in Komifornia to spend Christmas with our daughter and then on to AZ and then Mexico.
Watching the weather, we might head to the coast at Grants Pass and continue down 101

We’re new to this forum and snowbirding. Found an RV spot near Phoenix for 2 months but I’m a little nervous about the idea of towing our trailer over the Siskiyou’s in January. Looking for the safest route to take from Seattle to Phoenix in January ( we will have lots of time, just want to get there alive lol). Would love any suggestions.. Thank you!!
If at possible, change your trip schedule to one earlier or 1 month later. I drive:
1. I-5
2. East on hwy. 58 out of Bakersfield
3. south on 395 to I-10
4. East on I-10 to Ariz.

I-5 would be the safest bet. Corning CA will be the start of good weather. There will be some rough spots like Weed.
