US 191 or 530 in Wyoming winter driving?

I don't know about 530. But which way is shortest. 191 is good I've drove it from Teton pass, Jackson down to the Flying J in rock springs. Its maintained very well in winter.

 

191 is pretty flat up to Jackson. Also US 30 is good for getting to Logan. Nice climb with a view of bear lake.

 

530 is fine to take. Ut 44&43 us191 are all fine. I was over wt and my permits had me on 530 44& 43 and 191 going to vernal it if I remember. Hell of view if you go during day. Don't get caught in a storm cuz they close the gates and your not moving.

Got chains?

 

Done Teton Pass in the winter in a truck?

 

Yes while snowing. Remind me what the weight limit is on Teton pass. I saw a sign that said 30,000 as I passed the scale house. But unfortunately I was 79,000 and the coop was closed at the wee hours. Don't tell on me. 2nd gear uphill, 1st gear down.

 

60k. No trailers in the winter though, and everyone around usually calls you in to the patrol, lots of guys get up there and spun out. Not even worth it to me to try and run it.

I live at the bottom, seen a lot of wadded up trucks and guys who didn't know how to drive the thing. I wouldn't be the least bit afraid to haul a D8 over it, but they'd never let me unless the world was coming to an end. Last guy who got killed on there had been driving for 2 months, was hauling his car crusher to the central part of the state. They figured he was 90-95k from the weights from the wrecker outfit.
