Might want to take a spin through the neighbourhood if the snow and general cold stay away for a few more weeks. Hwy. 33 looks interesting. Quick map check says the round-trip route I want to go is roughly 1000km, so I may consider crashing in Kelowna for a night.
Thanks for any local info!

LOL! Brats if you're thinking what I'm thinking. The weather never sucks here. It just gets mighty cold. Currently it's sunny but I hear the coquihalla is due for a dusting. You should be good for at least another month if it doesn't rain too much in the mountains.

Probably not this weekend... maybe either Oct 4 or 11. Maybe not this year if the weather is a complete debacle every weekend from here 'til snowfall? Aside from the route, I don't really spend too much effort planning when to go if it's just a drive.
Thanks, Agnes! I'll keep you and the other Okanagan folk in the loop.

Sweet. We can all get together for a beer or something when you're here. If you're going in mid-oct you're laughing. The worst part of the route would be the coque.

The weather has been great and is supposed to be for the weekend. It's gorgeous and sunny, just cooler than summer time. .

Frost on my car this morning. Not a good sign. Winter wheels may be going back on primer grey.  |

Rob had a great idea. I should cover the wheels in Burberry fabric. That'd be hot!
