I'm in Custer with a bit of time to kill. I'm thinking of taking 90 over to Billings, then 94 back through N. Dakota, and dropping down into the Minneapolis area. From there I'm good with what to do/where to go.

My question is if the Billings / N. Dakota route is worth the trip, or if I should consider a more southernly route back east?

Depends on how much time you have to kill and what you like.

I would go south Yellowstone-Jackson and then turn east or Yellowstone-Cody, then up over (really up and over) the Bighorn National Forest to Sheridan WY. Swing up to Devils Tower on the way east.

Last I heard ND is hard to find a decent place to camp because of the oil patch workers.
