That is the main route up the mountain but there is an alternate (2twenty6A)that is way better with minimal traffic. Cops are hip to it though so you can get a run in and then need to vacate.

One that is closer to you and is equally insane if not more so is Rte Eight south of Floyd just past the Parkway... drop-in hairpins and very fast.

Pucker Factor is 8.
