Question for anyone who cares to share their "first person" account / opinion of which route is better coming north out of Williams AZ up 89 towards Cannonville, Bryce Valley Utah.
I am inclined to go 89A, since we will have had traveled 89 down to Williams from Monument Valley a couple days before.
Is 89A a crazy route to take in a motor home?
I see coming north out of Williams, AZ, Highway 89 Branches off (89/89A)and I can go either way, at about the same route length of 320 miles.
Mr. Google wants to route me staying on 89 thru Page and Big Water.
Curious to hear the PROs and CONs of either route (89/89A).
This one day Journey of 320 miles is pushing the maX limits of what I like to travel, so not wanting to get on any white knuckle rides with sheer cliff drop offs.
This is one leg of our 2500 mile circle we have planned hitting some tourist traps with the Grand Daughter. Always looking for that cool place to stop and look around also.
89 thru Page and Big Water
-Or-
89A North to Marble Canyon thru Fredonia
Going to be driving our 32.5 ft Class C, with our new to us, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, 4 down. Braking on the Jeep is M&G Original Brake System. Our Class C, outfitted with M&G supplemental air kit. This will also be the first big trip since I had a Roadmaster Rear Sway Bar, and a Steering Stablizer put on the RV. Also added Bilstein Shock X-4 on the corners. Very interested to see how it handles. I will continue to run 80 PSI in the rear OEM Air Bags.
The little bit of highway driving driving I did since the upgrade only left me wanted to take a Long Trip, and that time is rapidly approaching.
Opinions anyone?
