What are the destination restrictions for the greyhound discovery Pass?

I'm thinking of buying a Greyhound Discovery pass. I've taken greyhound for years and always enjoyed the experience. The first time I will probably go with just a 7 day pass for 199$. I've checked out the Dicovery Pass website and have the cities written down where you can actually validate your pass from. My question is if you can only travel between these places when using greyhound. I've checked my desired routes to make sure they are all served by the Greyhound or their Interline partners for each destination. Here is a sample of my itinerary: Pick up Discovery pass from Richmond Virginia. Leave from Williamsburg VA to New Orleans, LA (spend day in NO) Leave New Orleans to Rapid City South Dakota (Spend Night) Leave Rapid CIty to Bozemann Montana (Spend night) Possibly pick up more tickets in Billings MT, if needed) Leave Bozeman MT to Vancouver Canada (Spend Day, maybe night if time available) Leave Vancouver to San Fransisco Home THis is just a sample itinerary. I may have to tweak the schedule a little to fit it all in to 7 days. Who knows, I may go for 15 days. I just want to be sure I'd be able to use the pass for destinations not listed on their website as places you can validate the passes themselves from. South Dakota doesn't appear to be on the list but Jefferson Lines, the bus that partners with greyhound is listed as a supported interline carrier. If anyone could help my out that has had experience with the Discovery pass, I would appreciate it. From what I understand about it, you either pick up tickets to a certain destination at each stop or you can choose to get an entire coupon book. Unfortunately it's not the same as Canada's version where you just flash the pass to the driver. Thanks. I just talked to Greyhound and it seems all my destinations are covered. The list of Select cites are only where you can buy the initial pass itself. Once you get the pass or have it mailed to you, then you can leave from anywhere within their route structure. As long as the route is served by a Greyhound carrier or their interline partners.
