    My company is based out of Idahofalls... And thus most of my eastbound loads originate from that very local area. So when I suspect I-80 problems I usually completely avoid 80 by running US26 from Idahofalls clear to Ogalalla.

    I have made several other detours on various roads in WY... But have yet to run 28. As soon as the DOT officer called it South Pass, I recognized it as a route a good friend of mine used to run several times a week. I will definitely keep it in my bag of tricks for the inevitable day that 80 becomes a mess after I have already started toward it via US30, which is my usual route.

    I did have one occasion where I almost used WY28... Late last summer, or early fall, I was stuck in Laramie for a major closure on 80 around Rawlins. I was headed to Salt Lake and was just about to run US287 to WY 28, then to US30 where I could catch WY89 to Garden City, UT and US89 through Logan Canyon to I-15. Just as I was getting ready to pull out of Laramie they lifted the closure.
