1. Has anyone towed their 5th wheel over RMNP's trail ridge road to intersect with Hwy 40 and then gone west on Hwy 40? Is it doable? Any suggestions or insight?

2. Assuming question #1 is out, what about leaving RMNP and going north to hwy 14, then west to Steamboat Springs and intersecting with Hwy 40. Any suggestions or insight?

Thanks for any suggestions.

We have pulled up Hwy 14 to Steamboat and beyond many times in our 26' TT - and not a hint of a problem - we now have a 3400RL Montana and would not hesitate to go that route - however for most parts 'slow and easy" would be the phrase of the day - once you get on US 40 - piece of cake - you could take to SLC and on from there.
