Newk is right, I-90 is the road you want for the Badlands. If you really don't want to use US16, you can take the longer way around via I-90 to Laurel, Montana, then south on state/US routes to Cody (all decent roads, relatively flat but scenic) and west into the park from there on US14/16. At Fishing Bridge Junction inside the park, turn left and continue past Lake area and West Thumb for Grant Village - by the way, it's easy to miss the turn into Grant so be on the lookout for it, only a fairly short distance past West Thumb Jct.
