Appalachian Peaks to Midwest Prairies

The drive through West Virginia has some steep grades; keep an eye on your brakes. Once you hit Ohio, it’s smooth sailing, but watch for speed traps on I-70!


Route: Rockville → Coopers Rock → Wheeling → Columbus → Indianapolis → Garden of the Gods → Carbondale

We're trekking from the Maryland suburbs all the way to Southern Illinois—a classic cross-country push that trades the Atlantic watershed for the Mississippi Valley.
