From Timber Lake to Larsen's: SD-20 East, Then Over the River
Take SD-20 east out of Timber Lake. It meets US-12 near Snake Creek, about 8 miles west of Mobridge; turn east on US-12, cross the Missouri River (Lake Oahe) on the US-12 bridge, and you are in Mobridge on Grand Crossing Avenue.
Google Maps timed it at 43 minutes on 9 October 2026; allow 45 to 50 in normal conditions. SD-20 drifts fast in a ground blizzard, so check SD511 in winter before you leave.
The last two blocks: over the bridge, US-12 becomes Grand Crossing Avenue, so turn right (south) on Main Street at the stoplight; Larsen's is two blocks down on the west side, with curb parking at the door.
Route from Timber Lake on SD-20 and US-12 to 211 N Main St, Mobridge (Google Maps).
Before You Leave Timber Lake
- Watch the clock: Timber Lake is on Mountain time, an hour behind Mobridge, and we close at 6pm Central (5pm Mountain), so leave Timber Lake by about 4pm your time to get here before we lock up.
- Text photos first: eighty-two miles there and back is most of a morning. Text (605) 850-9455 and we will give you a rough cash range before you leave. We would rather tell you no over text than have you find out after an hour on the road.
- Cheyenne River customers: Timber Lake, Isabel, Eagle Butte, Ridgeview, Bridger and Dupree are all regular drives for us, and have been for three generations. Timber Lake sits on the Native American Scenic Byway.
- Cheyenne River ID works: a tribal ID with a photo is accepted, as are a driver's license, state ID or passport, with no residency requirement.
What Timber Lake Customers Come In For
On a 41-mile trip it helps that everything happens at one counter: same-day pawn loans at 25% per 30 days with no credit check, gold and silver tested and weighed in front of you, diamond and estate jewelry, coins, and the jewelry store side, from repairs and $10 watch batteries to Black Hills Gold (the what we pawn guide covers what we accept). Ring sizing and stone work that go out can be picked up on your next Timber Lake run.
