Route description
Nelson-Nelway Highway
Highway 6 begins at the Canada–United States border crossing at Nelway, where it connects with Washington State Route 31. The highway parallels the Salmo River for the rivers entire length from Nelson to the border and many views of the river can be seen from the highway. From the Canada–United States border, it travels north through the Selkirk Mountains for Шаблон:Convert to the Burnt Flat Junction, where the Crowsnest Highway (Highway 3) merges onto it from the east. Highway 3 and Highway 6 share a concurrency north for Шаблон:Convert to the town of Salmo, where Highway 3 diverges west.
From Salmo, Highway 6 goes north for Шаблон:Convert, continuing to follow the Salmo River valley to the town of Ymir. Then it continues north for Шаблон:Convert passing through the communities of Porto Rico and Hall Siding, to the city of Nelson, just south of which (10 km) access to the Whitewater Ski Resort is located. Highway 3A merges onto Highway 6 in Nelson, and the two highways travel west for Шаблон:Convert along the Kootenay River, passing through the communities of Taghum, Bonnington Falls, Beasley and Corra Linn to where Highway 3A diverges southwest just west of South Slocan at Playmour Junction.[3] The highway then proceeds north west up the Slocan Valley.
Vernon-Slocan Highway
From South Slocan, Highway 6 follows the Slocan River north for Шаблон:Convert passing through Winlaw, Slocan City and Silverton to the community of New Denver, where Highway 31A meets Highway 6. Шаблон:Convert northwest of New Denver, Highway 6 reaches its junction with Highway 23 at the resort community of Nakusp. Highway 6 then turns southwest and proceeds to follow the east bank of the Columbia River (Lower Arrow Lake) for Шаблон:Convert to Fauquier, on the east shore of Lower Arrow Lake, where the Needles Ferry is located.[3]
From Needles, Highway 6 takes a winding path northwest through the Monashee Mountain range, passing through the community of Cherryville on its exit from the mountains, until it reaches the community of Lumby, Шаблон:Convert away.
