Taking I-70 in November en route to San Fran????Help!!

[SATogie32]

Hi Everyone!

I am about to embark on my third cross country road trip. My first two were on a move to LA from Boston, and then back. On the way out there in spring, we traveled I-40 (66) to LA for 10 days. When I moved back it was summer and we traveled on both I-90 & I-80 for 12 days to see the northern pacific and wyoming.

I am wondering if there is anyone out there that has traveled I-70 from the east coast to Utah eventually taking I-80 to San Fran? Since I've already traveled I-80 I'd like to go a different way, and this trip will be the first week of November. My brother and I will be trying to make it to San Fran in less than 5 days, as this isnt a sight seeing trip like before, the purpose is for a move to Hawaii.

If there's anyone out there with some insight, I'd love to hear it! Thanks so much!!

Welcome to the RoadTrip America Forum!

Interstate 70 is a beautiful ride, especially in Colorado and Utah.
Here is an article about it.

As far as time, it would be a stretch to cover this ground in less than five days. Five days is the generally accepted time to cover a coast-to-coast trip. Are you starting from Boston or elsewhere on this trip? The reason I ask is that I-70 starts in Maryland, near Baltimore. If you are going from Boston West and join up with I-70 in Denver, the trip is roughly 3300 miles, which would mean 660 miles per day - or 12 hours on the road each day.
