Has anyone recently traveled from Hot Springs to Fort Smith using 270 to 71. Doesn't look like that Route 7 is a good option for us to get back up to I40. Any info on diesel stops would be welcomed. Headed to Depew Ok.

We used that route in January to get from Mena to Hot Springs. Lots of curves, but scenic, no major towns, and relatively little traffic except in the suburbs of Hot Springs.

270 has been undergoing repaving. Otherwise it's a decent road. Took that route about a month ago.

It's curvy and hilly but so is every other road in that area. Should be fine.

Arkansas 7 is a good road, we've driven on it a few times towing our 26'.
