US 160

U.S. Route 160 (US 160) is an east–west US Highway in northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, southern Colorado, southern Kansas, and southern Missouri in American Truck Simulator. The route is separated into three sections: The first section runs from US 89 between Cameron and Page to US 350 east of Trinidad. The second section runs concurrently with US 183 in southern Kansas. The third section runs within Springfield. In real-life, US 160 runs 1465 miles (2358 km) from west of Tuba City, AZ, to southwest of Poplar Bluff, MO.

Course

US 160 begins at its intersection with US 89, north of Cameron, AZ, and trends northeast through the colorful Colorado Plateau, where it is known as the Navajo Trail. After intersecting with AZ 98, which provides access to Page, the highway crosses under the conveyor of the Peabody Kayenta Mine, a coal mine on Black Mesa, a highland region to the south of the highway. The highway soon passes through Kayenta, where US 163 provides access to US 191 via Monument Valley, and not long afterward intersects with the 191 directly. After east and westbound weigh stations, at Teec Nos Pos, US 160 makes a TOTSO northward, with US 64 continuing straight on. The 160 soon enters New Mexico, which it runs through for just under a mile past the Four Corners, where New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado meet; the monument here offers a rest stop and a viewpoint.

After entering Colorado, the highway crosses the San Juan River, and climbs up to US 491, meeting with the highway below the cliffs of Mesa Verde and the prominent butte Chimney Rock. The 160 runs concurrent with the 491 past the Ute Mountain Casino Hotel (which features travel services) and the Ute Mountains to the west to Cortez, which features a weigh station and rest stop. The 160 continues eastward, north of Mesa Verde and south of the San Juans, to Durango, where it intersects with US 550. In the forests south of the San Juans the highway passes below another landmark called Chimney Rock, this one being a mountaintop pillar of rock; this feature is a national monument, and was the site of an Ancestral Puebloan dwelling that housed around 2000 Pueblo Indians between the years 925 and 1125. The highway soon reaches Pagosa Springs, where it intersects with US 84 and once again crosses the San Juan. Passing Treasure Falls, the highway takes on Wolf Creek Pass, a high pass in the Southern San Juans that features two large switchbacks, the upper one featuring an overlook. After crossing the summit of the pass (which, at 10,857 feet, is the highest point on the highway, and a crossing of the Great Continental Divide), the 160 descends into the San Luis Valley, where, at Monte Vista, it intersects with US 285, and soon after runs through Alamosa. After crossing the Rio Grande and Alamosa East, the highway runs below the Blanca Peak Massif and crosses the Culebra Range (a subrange of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains) via North La Veta Pass (9413 ft), crossing the summit below Rough Mountain and Mt. Mestas, two prominent peaks that stand to the east. Leaving the mountains, the highway reaches Walsenburg, where it begins a concurrency with Interstate 25 that ends at Trinidad. East of Trinidad the highway currently ends at a TOTSO, where it continues east towards Kansas; continuing straight on from this point is US 350.

US 83 reappears in south-central Kansas at the junction of US 183 and K-34 north of Woodward, Oklahoma. The route runs east concurrently with US 183, passing through Protection and intersecting K-1 before once more diverging and becoming inaccessible.

US 83 makes one final appearance in the city of Springfield. It connects the western industrial area with an airport to Missouri Route 744 in the city center, crossing Interstate 44 in the process.
