RT 36 between Red Bluff and Rio Dell in California

Has anyone taken Rt 36 between Red Bluff and Rio Dell? We are headed to Avenue of the Giants with a 24' Class C. Any issues?

You should be fine.
Keep a watch on the traffic behind you, and be aware of Log trucks and Bicycles

I've driven it in a car and said to the wife I won't pull the trailer over this road. Go via Hwy 20 to 101 or 299 to 101. That's the routes I'd consider.

Updated info: talked with someone yesterday that drove this section last weekend. There is a major reconstruction for about 5 miles that is basically dirt/gravel. The closure is on weekdays, only open one hour between noon and 1pm for the 8am to 5pm period. Open to traffic 5pm to 8am and all hours on the weekend. He said it would be a rough 5 miles pulling a trailer. Hope this helps.

State Route 36 is extremely curvy. I would not recommend it when hauling a rig. SR 299 would be the better option.
