Road tripping across the northern US can some burgers give me tips

Starting in Washington and moving east to DC then up to Maine. I kind of want to see Mount Rushmore, I know it's suppose to be underwhelming but I feel like it's worth it before the whites convince the natives to blow it up. I'm moreso looking for routes to avoid but if anyone knows a cool place to hit lemme know. I'll probably be heading out at the end of September also kind of on a time limit since the whole reason I'm doing it is to drop off a car for my friend.

Love you all!

Grand Teton and Badlands national parks should be roughly along your route, definitely see Grand Teton, Badlands is neat but not essential

Mt. Rushmore really is underwhelming but worth having been there once I guess

There is almost nothing interesting east of Badlands for about a thousand miles

Thanks. I've done the drive a couple times on the Canada side so I'm used to driving without seeing a town for 500+ km. If there's really nothing past badlands I could go more south, I imagine it's probably better to just rush through it though.

Black :marseyrat: folk are great. Once you hit Chiraq go south :marseysaluteconfederacy: to NOLA and follow :marseycursor: the smell :marseybrap: of burnt ends eastwards.

Why is it underwhelming?

I recently went to Mt. Rushmore and wasn't underwhelmed at all. I'm my opinion it looks really cool and the the viewing area is classy.

I think most people assume it's bigger than it is. IDK, still sounded cool. I went through SD recently and thought about making a detour only to realize I was on the opposite side of the state.

I went there as a kid and liked it.

But I remember it's smaller than you'd think and the fog can make it unseeable sometimes.

What else would you expect from a bunch of old white men?

it's not bad or anything but I found the natural landscape of the Black Hills (where it's located) to be more interesting

maybe it was just the circumstances when I went. I drove all the way across SD that day and was worn out
