Best route south to summerize asap?
I will be leaving saskatchewan in a few weeks heading to Southern California. My motorhome is winterized and I want to summerize as soon as possible then take my time and enjoy the trip.
The plan is to leave Regina and head to Gillette, wyoming the first day.
My question is - on day two should I head straight south for Denver or head southwest for rock springs wyoming and then to provo, Utah?
Which route has the best chance for me to get all systems working the soonest? I would love to stop after day two and summerize everything then take my time and not have more long driving days.
Suggestions welcome for either of these two routes or another if there is one.

Have you tried weather.com or accuweather for their predictions? The best place can change with the forecast.

Until May you will have freezing temperatures in both Denver and Provo. They are both high elevation locations.

You will need to get south of I40 to get above freezing at night, either New Mexico or Arizona gives you the best chance. Utah is mostly cold this time of year.

Why does it need to remain winterized if you are actively using the coach? Can't you just turn on the heat?

I am worried re pipes or valves not getting enough heat if it gets too cold.
Really don't want to have to deal with something frozen when I am starting a holiday.

There are numerous threads about that. Comes down to turn on the heat and leave it on. Monitor your tank area temperatures. Either that of leave it fully winterized until the weather forecast for where you will be stopping is warm enough for as long as you will be there.
