Easiest is probably a variation on A...
Follow Highway 5 to Merritt, then Highway 5A towards Princeton, but shortly after you turn off the 4 lane section that goes to Kelowna, you'll drive through Aspen Grove (don't blink, you'll missit) and then 5.5 kilometers after that a road on the right turns to Tulameen and Coalmont. This is Coalmont Road. That's the best way in, then you don't have to go all the way down to Princeton. You can Google Earth to Aspen Grove to get your bearings as Coalmont Rd. shows in Google Earth.
