Looking for I70 alternatives for a Colorado trip with my TT coming from Eastern Colorado (2500lb Lance 1575 TT) in February.
I have traveled I70 many times before but hate it (I have appropriate equipment like chains, new snow tires, Good truck, generators, TT is good for winter camping and does fine even in Northern MN).
Yes I have to go in February. I have the whole month. I am traveling to Southern Utah/Northern AZ.
Unfortunately New Mexico is closed to travelers and going around isn't an option for me. I don't want to risk getting stranded in NM as they require a 2 week quarantine.
I can only spare an extra 500 miles (from straying from I70)as I'm bringing my truck to sell so I'm low on options for going around.
I've planned several weeks of time in case of an emergency, time is no issue.
I tend to travel 3-5 hours a day and stop, no problem going slow...I'm not a fan of going 80mph though as many Coloradans are.
I have considered Pueblo, CO to Grand Junction and down 285 through Utah.
I have also looked at going down Hwy160 out of Walsenburg, CO but I really have no idea as I've only ever gone North of I70.
I would love any advice you have to offer if you've ever been out this way in the winter or live in the South West part of CO! Thank you!
