When to leave
- The afternoon and evening of November 25, 2026, the day before Thanksgiving, is usually the heaviest stretch of the whole year. If you can, leave that morning or the night before.
- On November 26, 2026, Thanksgiving Day itself, the roads are usually the quietest of the week, especially in the morning.
- November 29, 2026 is the big return day. The middle of the day is the worst; early morning and late evening move better.
- Mountain passes are where snow closes the road first. Check the cameras and the weather alerts for your route the same day you travel, not the day before.
