Re: From Yuma to Vegas 95?
US95 between Yuma and Vegas is really fairly flat. There may be some increase in elevation, but no real grades or passes. I usually stay on the east side of the river on AZ95 between I-10 and I-40. That section of US95 in CA was very rough the last time I was there. This may have been improved. As to fuel stops, the total distance is a little over 300 miles. There should be fuel in any of the towns you pass through. Try to avoid buying fuel in Needles. Very high priced. Bullhead City, AZ usually has pretty good fuel prices and there is a Sam's Club there if you are members. There should be no problems with this route. Stay safe!242Views0likes0CommentsRe: Spokane Wa. area to Yuma or Tucson avoiding snow in January
We have traveled south after Christmas several times. I would recommend I-5 and watch the weather for a good time to cross the Siskiyous. We usually take US97 to I-84 and I-205 around Portland to get on I-5. That pass south of Ashland is the most likely place for snow. Rolling Hills Casino is a good stopping place. I would stay on I-5 until SR46 at Lost hills CA. Head east on SR46 to US99 then South to SR58. Check out the Orqnge Grove RV Park just east of Bakersfield. Head east on SR58 to Barstow where you can take I-40 east into AZ AZ95 (NOT US95 in CA) on the east side of the Colorado River is a good road through Lake Havasu and Quartsite south to Yuma.1.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: seattle to flagstaff next week
You will need to watch the weather carefully. The following web-sites are very helpful. Oregon http://www.tripcheck.com/, Idaho http://hb.511.idaho.gov/main., Nevada http://www.safetravelusa.com/nv/#, Washington http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/passes/ After you cross Snoqualmie, you will need to check on the stretch between Pendleton, OR and Baker City, OR, Deadman Pass. Unless you really want to visit SLC, US93 south from Twin Falls, ID is a good route to LV. and saves you several miles. Be prepared for cold weather until you reach southern NV. Stay safe and enjoy.266Views0likes0CommentsRe: RV Park with full hookups near Concrete WA ?
Just a few miles east of Concrete is Howard Miller Steelhead Park at Rockport. This is operated by the county and has water and electric at the sites, with a dump station available. A very nice park. Check it out here http://5starcampgrounds.com/howard-miller-steelhead-park/ There is also the Rockport State Park, but the amenities are better at Steelhead Park. You will defiantly need reservations.177Views0likes0Comments
