Hello Everyone
We need help please.
We would love to travel by RV from Las Vegas, stopping overnight at Death Valley, then onto Mammoth Lakes overnight, and then onto Yosemite.
We will be leaving Las Vegas around 20th Jan, can you please let us know which routes, and overnight spots for the RV that you would recommend.
Thanks
Leisa
Las Vegas to YosemiteTo go from Death Valley, you will need to take the southern route by way of Bakersfield, and north to Yosemite. Tioga Pass, the eastern entrance of Yosemite, closes with the first snowfall. This is usually around the end of October, first of November.
Mammoth Lakes has an abundant snowfall, and traveling with a RV may not be feasible at this time of the year. The elevation of the town of Mammoth Lakes is 8000 feet.
At RV in winter, at these altitudes and road conditions, is really out of the picture.
Las Vegas to YosemiteThank you for your reply.
So perhaps it is just better to go Death Valley Yosemite, via Bakersfield.
If we took this route does this go anywhere near Kings Canyon and the Sequoira Trees.
I really don%26#39;t suggest taking a RV into Yosemite or the other National parks in the winter. You must carry tire chains at all times in the winter, and they are not supplies with an RV. I don%26#39;t know if you can put chains on a RV for that matter! The roads in Yosemite are not plowed well if there is snow, and if you are not used to driving mountain roads in the snow, it would be very dangerous in an RV.
