If so, you still deal with some sketchy roads between Cortez and Monticello if snowy. Also Spanish fork canyon always sucks. But I’ve made the drive at least 50 times and never had a serious problem.

Depends what part of Utah you are going to. You take 40 to Flagstaff

Easy drive as long as there is no snow, then you are screwed

I-80 should be clear. That would be my first choice.

Less chance of treacherous weather. I've driven NM, Arizona several times.
