I think I would take this route:

What roads are interesting? What sights to see?

2 is North Cascade National park...worth visiting?
3 is Glacier Park with Road to the Sun
4 is Painted Rock Park in MI
5 is overnight stay visiting some family
6 is home

Really need some help filling out the long gaps between 2 and 4....ideas?

What? You don't like my pictures? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) How about this one from an off-road campsite on the way to Cody.

Seriously, you will remember this stretch of road forever. Hwy 212 is the Beartooth, on the other side, WY296 is the Chief Joseph Hwy...an absolute blast in a 914. If you're not driving a 914 you'll constantly be saying, "I wish I had my 914."

SOT, but I won't have my car for RRC- I'll be on the bike with a week to burn after we're done. I'm heading north, hopefully up to Glacier as I've never been and doing Beartooth also before heading to the BoZone to see friends and Jellystone on my way home. The East is beautiful and green- the west takes your breath away... in spots. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
