Needles Highway
Is this doable in a dually?
Forum Discussion
Co-worker did it in his '04 3500 Ram duallie. He did measure it first, and folded the mirrors.
The area is quite different than the rest of the Black Hills, and rather unique.
Be sure and drive the Iron Mountain highway in the morning and from south to north. This way the faces of Rushmore are visible and framed by one or two of the tunnels. The faces look South East and the afternoon sun makes it about impossible to see them coming thru the tunnels. (I didn't know any better at the time). I also messed up and drove the wildlife loop in the early afternoon, however a lot of the wildlife is not out till near sunset, so again, I messed up.
My Black Hills visit was way too short, I intend to return to the area and spend more time.
