  • I travel that way often. Be careful about 6 or 8 miles in SC as you cross the river from Augusta. SC trooper like to set in the median looking for violators - not that any of us RV types would be speeding ;)
  • the biggest hill is red top mountain at cartersville. you're be fine!
  • Take it easy and enjoy the drive! Lock the tranny going up the mtns!
  • I drove route 20 in October....heavy duty construction was going on at that time....
  • You don't go THRU Florence, you bypass it by continuing on I95 for a few miles and there is a turn off to Myrtle Beach that goes around Florence. You can you through Florence but I do not recommend it.

  • You'll have no problems with mountains, but you will need to set your clock back 20 years as you go through Florence!
  • Thanks guys you have taken a load off my mind-I was concerned that we would run into some mtns. but as usual it was a worry that should not have been-Thanks Rich

    We live in Augusta. No big mountains, it is a nice drive with small rolling hills with lots of pine trees to the flat lands of the coast. Depending on the time of day (and/or crazy drivers), the Atlanta interchanges can be fun..Columbia,SC interchanges are not too bad, we have not had a problem going through there. We've been to Huntington Beach once and really enjoyed our stay.
    Enjoy your trip!
