Highway 2 in Montana goes nowhere near Butte or Three Forks. Since it's not far from the Canadian border it' s a real challenge in winter.

I just shake my head at the sensationalism used to get a few clicks. I've never been on the SC one, but the rest aren't bad. The freeway between Butte and Three Forks? Give me a break.
I take it neither of you have heard of Montana-2, either that or you can't read a map.
Few people, other then locals (I used to live there) have ever taken Montana-2. Even then you need a reason. I-90 is a much better road.
The only real issue is the distance for medical aid, and that most of it certainly doesn't have cell-phone coverage.
I took Montana-2 for fun one time, it's really not a bad road, but for 99.999% of the folk; I-90 is the better choice.
