From steep grades on the roads, to tight fits and alternative travel directions, this mountain directory is here to help make mountain driving a little safer for truckers and RV’ers, The publishers, R&R Publishing Inc. have been documenting, collecting and publishing information about mountain passes and steep grades since 1993. Also The Mountain Directory Ebooks literally give the locations and descriptions of over 720 mountain passes and steep grades in 22 states.

THE MOUNTAIN DIRECTORY

Study These ebooks before going on your trip and keep them handy to read while on your trip. First of all The Mountain Directory ebooks inform and locate where the steep grades are, how long they are and how steep (percentage wise) they are. So you can Be informed on how many lanes there are for you to navigate.  And if there are escape ramps, switchbacks, sharp curves, and speed limits, etc.

With this information you will know ahead of time what a pass is like and make an informed decision. So you Decide based on the information whether to go over or around. Depending on you and your vehicle If you decide to go over, perhaps the cool morning hours would ease the strain on the engine, transmission and brakes during the climb and descent. Also Unhooking a towed vehicle would make the climb and the descent easier. Similarly Knowing what lies ahead is only half the battle.

Stay Out of Trouble When Possible

There is an old saying among over-the-road truckers. “There are two kinds of drivers — those who’ve been in trouble on a mountain grade, and those who will be.” Hopefully this will help you to avoid being either one. We hope to help you make an informed decision to try and stay out of serious trouble on the road. Unfortunately, this also applies to many RVers. Trucks and RVs have similar problems regarding weight, engine power, and braking in mountainous terrain.

While we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of the maps included in this book, it is  impossible to include all necessary detail on such small maps. We recommend that these maps be used in along with larger, more detailed road maps. Between these you can be well informed as to what lies ahead. And also to take the necessary precautions. Along with this information you need to know your vehicle and yourself.

This mountain directory comes with incredible reviews. Read these and learn from others.  “RVers often have problems with mountain grades. Both going up and coming down. It’s helpful to be warned when a steep grade is coming up, and that’s just what the two Mountain Directories do.” Coast to Coast.
