Since Jim and I drive back and forth to Phoenix quite alot.....the southern route....going through Hatch and coming up through Tucson will run about 8-8.5 hours. That's with one stop!
We usually go the northern route on I40 to I17...that way takes us 6.5 hours, with one stop! As you can tell Jim doesn't like to stop much...likes to get where we are going.
I am open for either way....Since the meet is going to be in April, I would say go south to avoid snow in Gallup, Grants and Flagstaff...we have driven out at Easter and hit a blizzard one year where we hugged the back end of a Semi, just to be able to see!
It's going to be a blast!!!!!!
