Hello...we currently reside in So. Cal and not used to winter travel. Husband may have a job opportunity (we are hoping) in Eastern Washington state (Moses Lake). The plan is for him to live in the Monty and get settled while I await retirement
and can join him.
The problem is the winter road conditions on the way up. We would take I-5 through Calif, Oregon and Washington then I-90 out of Seattle east to Moses Lake. Current conditions on I-5 No Cal and I-90 along WA Snoqualmie pass currently require chains or traction tires.
I am hoping things will clear, but wondering if he should set up in an apartment until we can both bring the Monty up which would be a last resort due to supporting 2 households. Am I freaking out over nothing? Are these conditions extreme and will clear up enough to get through safely? Have any of you traveled these interstates this time of year?
We can put traction tires on the Dodge, but what should we do for the TT? We also have chains for the truck, but don't think they can be used with the TT. Are there chains for truck and trailer? What would you do?
I realize he has not got the job yet, but we want to remain positive and have all our ducks in a row in anticipation of good news! It has been over 18 months since he was laid off.
People on this forum have always been so helpful and very much appreciated. Thank you in advance for any advice provided.
