Driving this in a few weeks, where should I stop?
Doesn’t need to be strictly along the route, reasonable detours or route changes are fine.

Anacostia, Chicago, and whatever the bad part of Minneapolis is these days, probably the George floyd part
How much will you drive each day?
I like road trips but driving 8 hours a days seems like a drag.
I usually do it in 2 days

Holy fuck anon you really like to drive don’t you
pa stuff:
pittsburgh, ohiopyle, fallingwater, flight 93, abandoned pa turnpike tunnels, raystown lake, east broad top railroad, gettysburg.
then head south to dc
altoona area has lots of railroading if that's your thing
twin cities, madison, chicago are neat
Abandoned tunnels sound neat, I will check them out
I won’t be goin IN dc tho, I grew up in Nova and I have had just about enough of that city
understandable, frederick, md is pretty cute too don't forget a flashlight for the tunnels
I also really like Madison; there are some other weird and interesting side-trips one could take in southern WI as well, such as The House on the Rock (among the strangest tourist traps/architectural tours on Earth), or the related and even better Dr. Evermor’s Forevertron, supposedly the world’s largest scrap-metal sculpture: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forevertron
The late Dr. Evermor evidently built a lot of the weird metal stuff in the House on the Rock. The scrap-heap/sculpture garden around the Forevertron is evidently no longer officially open to the public since he died, but apparently you can still get in through an adjacent lot.
The best place in Wisconsin is the Apostle Islands. Op should take a side trip there instead of driving on the interstates the whole way.
I did similar but for the first time in these areas and much slower. Assuming you've already done the whole Chicago, Mt Rushmore bucket list stuff, I suggest going to more local parks that no tourist would stop for, but are still great. Like the arboretum in Madison was nice. The beaches in Duluth were nice, and while I was walking it at night I was surprised by the northern lights for the first time.
If you've got time I'd suggest going a bit outside the optimal route. What's another hundred miles? Go up over lake superior! Do Toronto/Niagara Falls!
Canada is a no go
I have already been to Niagara Falls and would like to go on another Toronto trip but I am transporting stuff that I would have to fill out a shitload of paperwork in order to take it to Canada so it’s not worth the pain in the ass
Another time for sure
Google will try to take you through North Dakota. Just stay on 90 West towards Rapid City instead. It takes maybe 30 minutes longer, but you can do Mount Rushmore, The Devils Tower, The Badlands, Deadwood, Bozeman and Helena.
If you go through North Dakota, you won't see shit.
Thank god you're leaving Great Falls. Hope you don't have to come back. One of the worst places in the US
t. work for the ANG there and have to go there every month (Best Wok has some good general tso though)
I like it here since the natl forest isn’t far away
It really isn’t that bad. I consider moving by to Nova a downgrade
Of Montana's seven "cities" Great Falls is dead last. It is on the up though and a lot better than it was nine years ago when I started going there, but it's still gas stations, casinos, drunk natives, meth heads, and fast food as far as the eye can see.
Stop at House on the Rock in Spring Green, WI

Don't use interstates for road trip fag
