Page Arizona to Las Vegas via lower Utah route

We are currently in Page Arizona. The weather has been good up here. We were going to go back to Williams, then on to Las Vegas with a stop at Kingman before heading south to Texas. The weather is showing possible snow on Tues and Wed for Williams and rain for Kingman. We were thinking its only four hours to Vegas over the Utah route. We would stay a few days there, then stop in Kingman on the way south. We are driving a 40ft pusher with a toad. Does anyone have any input into taking the Utah route this time of year. Are there any big passes ect. The weather looks good, and I have checked all the elevations of each town and it appears they are not much higher than we are here in Page. Any input would be appreciated.

    Page to Vegas via Kanab/St George is an easy route.
    1 good climb between Page and Kanab. The rest just rolling hills.
    1 long slow windy decent into Hurricane.
    Twisties going through the Virgin River Gorge (55mph on the interstate).
    1 more climb out of Mesquite.

    There are no mountain passes. The most likely spot for any snow would be 30mi from Page on toward Kanab. That is the highest elevation, but is still high level desert. It does snow in that area every winter, but quickly melts (usually).

    Personally, I wouldn't be expecting any snow on the above mentioned route.
