US 2 from Mi to Mn.

We traveled that route, through to Everett WA, in October in a 40' class A. It's easy driving and has loads to see. The scenery is breathtaking, especially through the Cascades. It pays to top up the fuel anytime you get to around a half tank as there's long stretches where fuel stops are few and far between. Even with many of the campgrounds closed when we went through there was still enough open that we had no trouble getting spots. There's also a surprising number of free overnight camping places as well. Some of these had water and power available outside of the winter season. We spent three weeks crossing US2 and will be going back again.

Let us know what kinds of things you want to see/experience.

That monument is nice to look at, too bad the actual location is 16 miles away.

The monument in Rugby might be like Liberal KS claiming to be the home town of Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. It was never mentioned in the story so they just claimed it.

The monument in Rugby states "Geographic Center of North America:

Many young people seem to think that the center of the entire universe is wherever they happen to be standing. ;) But I digress....

If you like history, Fayette SP southwest of Manistique has interesting old buildings and artifacts from the 1800s, and is worth a visit. +1 on Palms Book SP; it's hard to believe that the bottom you see is 40' below you, through crystal clear water.

Yes, that's the one we saw as we drove by on US2.

Nope. It's the geographical center of the US. Everyone forgets that Alaska is part of the US, which pulls the geographical center north from where we all expect it.

However, the claim by this particular town in North Dakota seems to be in dispute.

It is geographical center of North America which includes Canada. We took US2 all the way to Washington state back in 1969 not in RV. Plan to retrace route this year with TT.

Thanks for the good info.
