Coming down through Payson isn't quite as rough as the Globe Route. But you do drop down from the rim. That road used to be a lot rougher before they put in the double lanes a few years ago. I think you do quite a bit more climbing and dropping going through Payson.

<div>Well we made the drive from Amarillo to Apache Junction through Show Low and Globe. To be honest, while to was a beautiful drive I was pretty wiped out when we started down out of Show Low and i really couldn't enjoy the views. It's probably not the best route when tired. I'm wondering if the Payson route is as rough (up, down, twist turn....) Taking the Interstate to Flagstaff and then down is seeming more realistic but I'm still exploring advice here.
