Video is optimized for broadband access. Wide-angle lenses used to record video straighten the curves out. For a truer sense of twistiness watch the mirror dip .
It’s rare when the goddess Fortuna combines good Pavement and Engineering
with a level of Remoteness usually reserved for gravel roads. And rarer still
when the curves are there to make it all matter. The only civilization on this
lonely byway is the handful of tiny farms and ranches within the first few
miles of Curlew. Past that, the West Deer Creek valley narrows. So except for
a brief plateau, there’s no flat land for aspiring homesteaders to try their
luck before you’re well within the protected boundaries of the Colville
National Forest, which covers the eastern two thirds of the road. This DH not
only gets more remote as you head east, it gets twistier, with most of the
curves coming on the descent off the Deer Creek Summit. As to the possible
presence of Bambi & Company? Well, they don’t call it “Deer Creek” for
nothing. Hope your good fortune holds.
