I was on that stretch of road (I-70) about 2 years ago and found it breathtakingly beautiful. The idea with engine braking is don't get in a hurry and don't overcook either the brakes or the engine whether it is 1, 2, 6 or 12 miles.
Our trip through Ten Sleep was difficult because it isn't straight, lots of switch backs with 20 MPH tops. Gotta constantly be aware of braking - both engine and wheels.
Hope that makes it clearer.
