Rapid City, SD to I-25

We're going from Rapid City, SD over to I-25. Does anyone know if SR-79 to US Hwy 385 & over US Hwy 20 is flat or hilly? Is it straight or winding? Are there any diesel truck stops on that route? Thanks!

  • It's a good route. Just west of Crawford, there is a short stretch of hills, nothing to worry about. Traffic is not heavy.
    Just after Crawford, you'll pass through Ft. Robinson State Park. It has a nice history museum and and little dinosaur museum with a great fossil of two mammoths locked in combat. There's also an RV park there with elec hookup, water and dump.
  • The road has some hills, nothing major. If you made there from Florida that route will not stop you! Diesel is nearly everywhere and most will be accessible for RVs.
