A 10 mile stretch of 4-lane highway from I-90 to Deadwood that is crawling with statetroopers and Lawrence County deputies. Once the sun goes down, obey the 55-65 mph speed limit. Hiding places vary with the Preacher Smith Monument parking lot just up the hill from Deadwood as the most likely cop hiding place. 7% grade also makes it tough keeping the speed down going north out of the Black Hills.
