family is across the mountains, and the common drive on the interstate is 168 miles and 2:46 according to google.
The alternative year round route is 149 miles at lower limits, and 2:59.
The summer drive is only 134 miles and 3:09, and just opened up for the season.
I take them in order of miles driven every time now. It has been a couple of years since we traveled the interstate.
The difference is dramatic. The multi lane road is full of road raging rude inconsistent drivers. The two lane routes are the opposite, and so relaxing by comparison.
