Directions from Flagstaff, AZ? 40-15-?

[alexandrasmom]

I'm driving to DL from Flagstaff tomorrow morning. I looked at a map and got thoroughly confused- there are so many freeways! When I lived in LA, I used to go the 10E to the 5S and that was it. Anyone have any suggestions? To get to the LA area, I take the 40 W to the 15 S. THANKS!!!

Be forewarned, there is construction on the 15 in the Devore area and you may experience delays.

Thanks- Where is Devore?

I mapquested the directions and here is what it says: 50-15-91-57

Sound ok?

I live just east of the 15. The way I go to DL is 15 south to the 60 west to the 57 south. Stay on the 57 all the way to the Ball Rd. exit. Turn right onto Ball Rd. Drive approx 3 miles and let the Magic begin.
I prefer this way because you can use the car pool lanes on both the 60 and the 57 and save time. You will most likely face a delay however where the 60 and 57 meet.

Hope this helps. Have a great trip.

I live in Flagstaff and we just went there in Dec. We take the 40 which then turns into 15 then we go on 91 and get off at Harbor Blvd. But that is us. You can do what mapquest says. We are just more comfortable with the route I mentioned. We have done it twice. I know there was construction between Needles and Barstow around Ludlow. It took us about 7 hours with 2 stops with the construction which made us go 45 mph.

Devore is just south of the Cajon Pass.

Personally, I try to avoid the 91 like the Plague. It is commuter Hell.

Thanks everyone! I like the idea of the carpool lane on the 60...

I can't believe we are leaving in 11 hours...

Have a safe drive and have a great time.
