To the OP, I see you are from Florida. I've been in California all my life and over all these mountain passes dozens of times, so consider that when taking my advice here. To me all the routes that have been described for you are no big deal. I wouldn't even have cautioned you about Priest Grade as to me it's nothing. It's just a slow climb going up with lots of switch backs, but that's just a normal mountain road for us in California. I sometimes forget that the tallest mountain in Florida is Space Mountain. Tropical36 is talking about the road too, but he's also from Florida. I like the part where he says he's originally from WV so he should be used to those kinds of roads. The highest elevation in WV is less than 5,000 feet. In California we call that a hill, not a mountain. I guess some of these mountain roads can get pretty hairy if you're mostly used to driving around in the flat country.
