We want to avoid some superslab, but have limited time to get there. We'd LIKE to try to get to Roanoke in one day about 565 miles...I am SO tired of route 81out of NYS...thought we'd try 220 to 15 to Harrisburgh then jump on 81 to Roanoke. anyone ever try that way...

My other question, probably more within the groups expertise, any idea of approximate traveltime from rtoanoke to Asheville on the Blue Mountain Pkway...as opposed to 81 to 26?

Finally...any opinions on other alternates to 81 south that arent too slow or too fast (Goldilocks redoux)
