Mt Rushmore to Yellowstone

We traveled that area last summer in our 30 ft RV. If you want to avoid hills and curved, then I suggest go through Rapid City and get on I-90. It is a nice drive to take. Hope off at Buffalo, WY and take the road from Buffalo to Cody. It is the safest route in terms of ease of driving. Few hills and curves and makes for a nice drive. But, be advised I counted two gas stations on that trip. But, as I said, it is a great drive to take.

I think the road he is referring to is US16 out of Buffalo to Worland, then 20 to Greybull and Cody. There is a nice RV park in Buffalo. Nice people. it is called Indian Camp Ground. We have stayed there many times. Fuel up in Buffalo. Not much between Buffalo and Worland. US16 is a nice road. It is a mountain road. You will really start to see why we live and love Wyoming. Not many people. Without reservations you will be hard pressed to find anything in Cody. There is a little RV park that isn't that popular. KOA RV park 3 miles east of Cody on the Greybull highway that not many people are aware of and it may be able to accommodate without reservations. Nice people. They were hay customers for a few years so I think they give trail rides from their RV park. Many RVers just pull into the Walmart parking lot on the west side, just west of Cody, and park. Quite a few RVers stay there for a few days. If you are driving during dusk and dawn be careful of deer. They seem to just jump out of no where and can do a lot of damage to your vehicle. Our stick house and ranch is about 15 miles north of Cody. BTW don't take 14 out of Buffalo. 16 is much better.
