How is the road to travel with my 40' Monterey and Toad on Highway 12 from I-5 to Yakama?

While you are in the valleys leading to and away from the high point of the pass, it isn't too bad.  It's generally only two lanes (one coming and one going) until you get nearly to Yakima.  When you get into the high country near the pass, the road gets more curvy and slower, and there are passing lanes.  Be prepared to pull over to let traffic get by if five or six vehicles build up behind you.

I should mention it has been years since I traveled over that pass and that was in a car.  I don't know the road's current condition.

Thanks for the info. I think we'll just stay with the 90.
