Just did a run to Colorado from Calif for an AG voucher elk. Took the 40 thru NM and spent 3 hrs to travel 20 miles (road construction) with lots of 25MPH zones crossing the CO border. Hunted for a day, filled my tag and headed to Lake George for a day for processing. Then headed north thru the Rockies (all switchbacks) out to the 70, out thru UT for an overnighter in Vegas. I think I was the only guest at the MGM with a bull elk in his suite. Then back to OC. Speeds varied greatly from 1 to 85MPH. Four tankfulls got me home with slightly under 1/4 tank of fuel left. The Ram ED averaged 20mpg. Worse than usual for this trek but not bad really...especially given the traffic and foul mountain weather.
