299 - motorhomes up to 45' allowed
199 - motorhomes over 40' not allowed
199 follows the Smith River nearly to Oregon. Along the way it has a lot of curves, with the tightest ones up river from Patrick Creek (campground and lodge). Close to the border it leaves the river, follows a creek (at little steeper, but straighter) before passing through a tunnel. Then it is a gentle and relatively straight drive into Oregon.
299 also has a river stretch (Trinity River). Evidently the curves are quite as tight. But it also has to cross between several river valleys.
