I kinda knew I was pushing the limit. I'm not truck driver who is OK with driving 10 hour days. Actually I don't like it at all.
My goal is to "get out there" as fast as possible, so as to enjoy the park.
What do you do when the schedule goes "Kaput". We have 3 weeks to spend going from Mi to MT to Yellowstone to Wall SD to Bismark to MI via the Upper Peninsula.
I have spent alot of cash reserving these sites.

Welcome to the forum. You can figure that for every hour you drive, you're going to make 50 miles. That's a number that I've found to be a given over many years of RVing.
So, drive for ten hours, you will be 500 miles down the road. A 650 mile day will take 13 hours of wheel time.
So, if 10-13 hours of sitting and driving works for you, then you're on the right track! For me, that's way too many miles unless there some emergency.

WOW! I was thinking that if I left these campsites at 6 Am I would be able to at least set up in the day light.I have all these camp sites reserved. what happens if I don't make it?
