That bridge only accesses the Highway to the Sun road which you would NEVER take and 5er/RV over you might be mistaken. The main Road used to go East/West is to the south. The only real commercial that goes under that bridge is for the small village on the other side of the bridge.

What I have done is I bought a Magnetic spring antenna, I will adhere a metal plate to the roof, I Cut the antenna coax/wire off the antenna base and cut the antenna to 1" above the A/C it is located near the front so my wife can look out the sunroof of the truck and see the antenna as I go under bridges, trees and other objects. Being magnetic I can quickly put it on and take off as needed.



Look driving around is an option however a very last option as I have full body paint and the roundabout way is 36 miles of which is 10 miles of washboard/potholed gravel road so it wold be a long 36 miles with potential for paint chips/damage.

My gut tells me I will be fine. I re-measured today with the new truck (2019 Ram 3500) and I got the height down to 13'4.75".

I have already booked the RV park and will get there one way or another
