Altitude and long grades pose extra TV challenges. I might try it, but I'd definitely plan to travel light and take it easy. Don't even think about towing a TM without a good brake controller and a weight distributing hitch, and I always expect a few surprises when going where others may not have gone before. For example, we used to tow a Miata behind our motorhome. As we were buzzing around Glacier National Park in the Miata, we discovered that it would overheat going up the pass in the slow traffic, because Miata engineers never imagined so little air through the radiator while driving uphill for that long at 20mph in bumper to bumper traffic (neither did we).
