Unconventional driving routes in the interior? Interesting gravel/logging roads?

For this summer I have quite a bit more time to enjoy my trip from victoria to calgary and I want to try to drive across the province differently than I have before.

Are there any gravel or logging roads that can serve as alternative routes so we aren't just doing the usual hwy1/hwy3? Have a 4x4 pickup that can pretty much go anywhere.

Has anyone done gray creek pass in a truck recently?

Check out gray creek pass. Looks like they recently widened it and replaced all the bridges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joocV7p9W-8

Not gravel but I seem to recall the north south stretch between Revelstoke and Castlegar quite nice taking the number 6 or 31, there is a little ferry ride at Shelter Bay. IE you switch between hwy1/hw3 using this route in ether direction.

Ya I've done that section, shelter bay ferry is awesome

Looking for something that doesn't have street view if you know what I mean
