My favorite road across Washington. I've done both 2 & 20, and each has its plusses, but I prefer 20.
If you get the chance take WA 542 (the Mount Baker Highway) on the north side of the cascades to Artist's Point. While a good road, I'd leave the trailer unless you manage to reserve a site at Silver Fir or Douglas Fir Campgrounds. They often don't open until the end of May and are difficult to reserve. When exploring the area I usually stay in Silver Lake Park near Maple Falls at the start of the highway.
