Canadians have their own “euro dyno” for mountain ranges.

Gotta remember he’s a OTR trucker (you can tell by the headset and quest for BSFC’s) they never get off the interstate. Never been on a West Virginia coal road or dodged scales through the woods of Virginia with 40ton on the wagon.

You used to walk that to school, up hill both ways in 12’ of snow? You just want to google random highways because I can do that too. Your the one that said there isn’t any hills on the east coast and anyone that’s been there knows your fos.


I’ve been west but it’s obvious you’ve never been east.

Yup that's it. That first curve you have a sheer drop past those barricades but you have to hug them or your trailer goes into the oncoming lane. I cant remember how many switchbacks there are but theres one that's really tight in between rock faces. You can see where trailers have hit the inside one.

This aint no Virginia back road, this is a major route to the coast! You will see everything from 10mph super bs ti speeding crotch rockets on there.

10mph? They either need smaller turbos or just watching their BSFC’s.

I used to run this stretch regularly with 35-40 ton in the bucket. Usually could get into the highside. This vid doesnt due justice of how steep it is though

If it’s not a Canadian hill or a euro dyno it doesn’t count.

Crowsnest Hwy
Crowsnest Hwy, Okanagan-Similkameen A, BC, Canada

Google Maps

Here's that tight spot I was talking about. Do street view. Sign says 20 kmh which is 12 mph but I dont recommend doing that.

Really wondering if new heads have new valves or this is where the cores go.
