Not curvy at all and nothing like I-40 near the TN-NC lines. That goes over the spine of the mountains... I-81 runs down a valley. There are some hills, but its straight. There may be some hills / slight curves if I recall around Wytheville/Marion, but nothing bad. The photos that MBMOUSE presented are superb examples of how I-81 is. I had taken photos about like that last summer.

MBMOUSE... I was going to ask you when those photos were taken, but I see they were taken after our late freeze we had. Not only could I tell by the date, but I could also see the lack of leaves on the trees, which are normally mostly full by that date. I hope we never have a freeze like that again so late in the year.

Smile Thanks for all the info

Thanks ya'll for all the info about the road. I am definitely taking that route and according to mapquest its only about 15 miles longer than I 40. Don't mind that at all. Take care and have a safe and blessed Thanksgiving as we plan to do in the hills of east Tennessee!!!
