That's an easy route. The pass on the provincial border is so gentle you'll barely realize you are crossing it.
Look up the BC Provincial Parks website. There are several good ones along your route. There are also some in Alberta just as you cross the border (well, more like road side 'rec sites').
Fernie is a ski resort town. Sparwood is a company town - for coal mines in the mountains above. Near the turnoff to Hwy22 is Lundbreck Falls. It's a nice lunch spot, and some camping.
In Alberta stop at the Frank Slide Interpretive Center.
