Best route?

Wish I could help but never been that way. I do have quarters to flip in case of emergency.

 

30 is good, it’s a nice 2 lane. I’ve been across it quite a few times. Plus it’s a little more scenic than going across the salt flats. Just make sure and stop at the J in Snowville if you need anything before you take off across there, there won’t be anything until you get to Wells.

 

You'll find a few trucks on that road.

It's 125 miles of no cell signal though.
No Verizon either. Unless things improved.

Steel loads from Plymouth to northern California take that road. Or back to Plymouth.

Anything ogden north is shorter that way.
South of Ogden is better taking 80. And going through the scale at the border.

 

I had Verizon most of the way across when I was on it about a year ago. But I remember back in 2014 or so there wasn’t much service.

 

I do not ever think I've been on that stretch of us 30. It is staa routing and way shorter. And it's not winter yet, go for it.

 

Even in the winter it’s not bad.

 

30 is worth taking if you've never taken it. Nice view around the north side of the lake. Not too scenic, ust relaxing on a road less traveled. It's a good two lane.

 

There’s no risk. It’s not mountainous, mostly in a valley. It’s nice scenery and since you have the chance I’d take it. It’s way better and also faster because you won’t be dealing with SLC traffic.
