Sparky - just got to Brooks for tomorrow's appointment with Westers.
We went through Osoyoos so we could take Anarchist - I'd recommend you take it going back. It's two lanes the whole way up, so you can run it pretty hard, especially with a 6 speed. You can blow by the crawling transports with no problem. If you take it coming to Penticton, it's one lane downhill with the brakes on, probably stuck behind a transport for 20 miles.
We stayed in Nelson last night, and went north to take the ferry across Kootenay lake - that's a trip to die for if you like running twisting roads with no traffic (stop to visit the artisan shops in Crawford Bay for an hour, and let the ferry traffic disappear. About 20 shifts per mile, and 20 smiles to the gallon. It comes back out at Creston.
