PS: I should have added this on my earlier post.
I drove from Southwest Virginia to AZ using I40 one February. Getting to western Tenn. took the better part of a day because of ice and freezing rain through the mountains. If you're making the trip in Feb. Go west (by going south first) young man

I suggested the route I did because I always go south first in the Winter.

Great time for birds in the Florida panhandle area. Florida is expensive in February.

I10 in Feb.
I40 is extremely dangerous and deadly in Feb frequently.
Look up the horrendous accidents east of Flag. that time of year on I40.

Oh, yes. My brother was married in Tucson in December, and we went home via Bosque del Apache.

It's a great place for birders.
If you were driving I'd bet the first part of your trip was better then the last. Or at least could have been. Somehow driving to South Bend in Dec just doesn't appeal to me.
Does your brother live in or near Tucson?

He lived in Tucson then.
Now he lives in Albuquerque.

Thank you Architect1776 for both of your answers. I will take the more southern route for sure.

What I found out is if you have "all weather tires" your pretty much home free as regards to park admittance --
With those tires we pretty (think November) much had Yellow Stone all to ourselves -- Of course all bets are off if a heavy storm is taking place and or one just took place & snow plowing has not yet happened -- All of this of course can be figured via your PC long before your trip

Thanks Ken, I do have pretty new all weather tires and I suppose I could take along some chains just in case. It's just at 70 I can't imagine myself out in a snowstorm installing them!
