Klamath falls, Or. to Medford on Hwy. 66?

Usually take 58 to Eugene but just wondered about 66 to Medford area for a change. Thanks for any warnings or positive info.

Cheers,
Warren.

  • My DH and I took our 36 ft MH on 66 going east. I was on the side that looked down......nope, not my idea of a road to travel again, in a big rig. LOL LOL Some people LIKE living with their panties in a wad, but not me!!!!!
  • 66 is a good road.......little narrow in spots. Have a friend that drives his log truck over it at least twice a day.
  • Hwy 66 is a little narrower on the west side towards Ashland. Length restrictions for big rigs is 40ft. Its doable but hwy 140 is the way to go if towing.
  • OR140 is easier. It's not like you couldn't take 66 (I'm sure logging trucks handle it just fine), but it's twistier, with a segment in the west that follows a ridge line.
