[QUOTE="Lee B., post: 555907, member: 14752"] Hi! I admit to just scanning these posts but I don't think anyone mentioned RMNP in May. YOu didn't say you were planning to traverse RMNP from Estes Park over Trail Ridge Rd to Grand Lake. If you are May and even June, heck July and August can be sketchy weather-wise. Just wouldn't want you to assume that you could scoot on across the park and have the road closed due to snow. Western NE is a whole lot of nothing but I sort of like that route. Several times when making the KC to Estes Park run we have gone through Lincoln to I-80 and across to Cheyenne adn South to Estes Park on I-25. Western NE starts getting nice buttes and I love the terrain. But as another mentioned the wind can be fierce. Especially if it is gusty from the south. My favorite part of N CA is around Sonoma. Definitely worth a stop or overnight for some winery tours before you hit thte GGbridge. If your way brings you back southern route and you can hit Sedona AZ, Grand Canyon, Santa Fe NM, over through northern AR and then back north to Peoria. Best to you on your travels. I love planning trips almost as much as taking them. It would be hard for me to wait until May. There is also the forum assistance list you should check out--don't leave home w/o it! Lee [/QUOTE]
