Red Bluff to Ancient Redwoods RV park in Recrest
The most direct route is hwy 36, but I being advised to take a longer route and use hwy 299. Anybody have any actual experience with theses roads? On the maps 299 doesn't look any better. TIA!

36 is great on a motorcycle -- not so great for an RV. I would avoid it!
299 is no problem -- the turns are not nearly as tight, lots of turnouts to let the faster vehicles go by.
The only issue with 299 is that there are almost always construction delays -- the geology in that area is rather interesting, to say the least, and the mountains are in constant motion.
Check the Caltrans website on the day that you are going to take 299 to see where the delays will be. You can't avoid them, but it is nice to know what is going on.
