@RUScrew85 & I did a 12 night road trip in 2019 starting in Sioux Falls, SD & ending in Fargo ND traveling thru SD, WY, Montana & ND. We followed the blog post below (& actually met 2 guys doing the same trip). We changed up day 1 & went to Deadwood ( I thought it was underwhelming & a tourist trap) & spent the last day in Fargo at NDSU with AJ Blazek who was there coaching. Otherwise we followed all of the recommendations & hotels.
Driving Between Wind Cave & Devils Tower we detoured to see the geographic center of the US in Belle Fourche, SD & spent time at the museum there talking to the docent. He recommended we not get back on the main road (think NJTP) to Devils Tower & instead put us on this 2 lane road that was way more picturesque & took us thru towns with a population of 25.
We used Billings as a down day, although walking around downtown we were underwhelmed.
12 hotels/cities in 12 days was a lot & really only gave us a taste of some of the sites, but it is such an amazing part of the country & so glad we did it.
@T2Kplus20 Happy to discuss.
Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, and South Dakota make for a great road trip. Check out this detailed 12-day northern USA road trip itinerary!
