Oh,yes, it was hwy 8. That's the one I took 14 yrs ago from Merritt to Spences bridge on the way to Whistler from Kelowna in the summer. That Duffey lake road was awesome, I thought the snow capped mountains were more scenic than the sea to sky.

Global had a story regarding hiway 8 last year l recall saying it was repaired but recommended local traffic only.
I'm not sure how far along now perhaps Drive B.C. or Google might have more info. on it. :dunno:

I'm not impressed with the winds in the Abby area at the moment. It appears to be windier at home at the pond.

Parts of that highway (used to be #99) used to have no guardrails to the side of some cliff faces.
