Can anyone tell us what this road is like pulling a 32 ft 5th wheel. We have read negative reviews and really don't want to attempt if it is as bad as everyone says but what route would we take from Grants Pass? We are in Grants Pass now and head out Monday. Please We need suggestions. Thank you so much

The highest point near the state border is a tunnel. Then the California side follows a major river, curvy but no significant grades. Just stay in your lane and give logging trucks and semis space. Closer to the coast you get into redwoods.

We are not that long, we have a 29' class C with toad on a dolly, but had absolutely no problems with it what so ever, maybe who ever said it was bad just can't drive in the first place. :R

Thanks everyone! We have watched videos on it and could not figure out why everyone said it was so difficult. Thanks for reassuring us. We appreciate it.

It is not as bad as you must have heard. I have been taking it from Medford to Brookings with a truck camper and boat, 26' fifth wheel, and now a truck with a 15' boat on the top pulling a 30' travel trailer for nearly 50 years. If it worries you, just slow down. Enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Outside Crescent City the road narrows and has many curves. You should not have any problems as many big rigs travel the highway. It is the last I am thinking 10 miles before intersection with US 101.
