Rexburg ID to Omaha NE

[txtiger]

I’m traveling from Rexburg Idaho to Omaha Neb next month. Looking at taking Hwy 26 out of Idaho Falls to US 191 in WY connecting onto I-80 east to Omaha. I’m driving a 43 foot Class A and will be pulling a U-Haul trailer. The alternative route would be I-15 to I-84 (around St Lake) to I-80, all interstate. The first route is about 2 hours shorter but I’m not familiar with how steep the grades are.

TX,

Can't help on the grade on Hwy 26 but have been on Hwy 191 South from Jackson to Rock Spring. it is a good road and the grades are not bad. I-80 across Wyoming is a good road. We were in Cheyenne last month and the one thing I can tell you is that there is a lot of road work on I-80. The work didn't cause any major delays. (we turned south at York).

Go and enjoy.

Thanks Herman. I am more concerned about Hwy 26. I know a lot of people take 191 to the Tetons, just not sure about 26.

Understand, if you have never been to Jackson Wyoming go, if you have time.

Beautiful city. When we were there the wife fell right in front an art gallery. She almost fainted. The least expensive painting cost we saw was way over 12 grand. Still a beautiful City
