We are planning a trip to Cascade, Idaho and would like opinions on the best route. I was thinking about going 395 north to Oregon/Idaho border. We have a new Coachman Freelander and are concerned about steep grades up and down. Please give me your best advice.

From your home location 395 is a good route there is one 10 mile 6%grade north of Bishop To Tom's Place but it is 4 lanes with the heat this time of year it is better to do it before noon but this is a major truck route and we have done it many times with no problems,you would probably want to over night in Lone Pine or Bishop any way Boulder Creek in Lone Pine or Highland RV Park in Bishop are good stops the scenery to Reno is pretty in Reno I would go east I-80 to Winnemucca then north 95 all the way to Boise then 55 north to Cascade all good 4 or 2 lane roads with no major grades if not stopping in Reno Winnemucca is a good stop. Have fun
