Vernal, UT to I-80 East Bound

There are two routes to I-80 and I would like some input as to which route to use. 1. Highway 191 and 2. Highway 44 and 530. Both are about the same mileage with #2 being a bit longer but less up and down. You can see what I am driving.

Thanks in advance.

    Easy decision for me - we love the West side of Flaming Gorge - just bump your way along till you find things you like - we love the Marina CG and the views of the lake from so many different elevations.

    Just seems to me to be more fun when you can see and look for things along the way.

    Then when you get to I-80 my advice is to get off as soon as possible and find more to see and do.

    BOL,
  • Be aware the climb out of Vernal is quite steep for some distance. I agree with Busskipper the west side is much more scenic.
