I just google mapped it. It doesn’t look that long and there aren’t any real sharp turns.

There is a fun one just outside of rutland that runs north, I want to say 100 to 107. I use to have TONS of fun in the work truck on that road. Almost hit a moose once though, damn near shit my pants

south kelley, make sure you drive it during the day before trying at night.

that road is no joke, lots of offcamber and no shoulders. make sure you beep at the end before coming through the tunnel
