Yeah, that's the main way to go. I did that a few years ago (except I had to go through Fernley-> Yerington -> Hawthorne on a detour due to construction on 95. Personally, I'm south enough already that its almost a draw to go through Carson City to Silver Springs, Yerington and Hawthorne (using the shortcuts around Silver Springs and Yerington and then the same from there to Vegas).
Either way, you'll likely see some snow but I doubt anything that'll be any worse than here right now. Just keep an eye on the weather reports, and check all the highways conditions. I'm sure you'll see some snow, and you should probably prepare for the worst. Bring snow clothes and extra food and water, just in case.
