    That makes sense. I haven't been out that way in a while.

    No service there until you get to Ashland and then Broadus to Belle Fourche SD you should have service again.

    I've never thought this route could be dangerous. I've even done a 10 in Ashland and it was quiet. Im skeptical if what you were told is true.

    I don’t know if this counts but 110 years ago, my grandmother was kidnapped by Indians and held for ransom.

    She was living on the homestead just west of Cheyenne.


    Oh the ransom was $20 and a barrel of beer.

    That sounds like a good idea even today.

    Sounds like the US Cavalry needs to be called in?

    the reservations I’ve been on usually need to help being trashed by truckers they’re doing fine with that all by themselves. Why the truck hate. Not trucks. Your not one of them so some of them will hate you. No different than anywhere else. Except some of the reservations are in the middle of nowhere. Nowhere for you to go if you need help. I will not stay overnight on some reservations. Nothing against reservations. There are other places I won’t park over night.

    That didn’t go so well the last time it was tried there. Lol.

    With all the Covid stuff you’re not supposed to stop anywhere across 212 once you leave Ashland. The reservations are thru traffic only unless you’re a tribal member.
