North Cascades Highway report from WSDOT

Glad somebody (like us) cares about THE environment, not just the "driving environment?" Thought so.

The avalanche assessment turned into a control effort that successfully brought unstable snow in Liberty Bell #2 and #3 down and confirmed the rest of the chutes they were assessing are clear or stable. Sixteen howitzer shells booming through the 60 degree sunshiny afternoon - during a few 20 minute highway closures - including a little clean up work, should provide the driving environment you expect (until the next round of snow storms!)


Maybe this will get to be the last e-mail update I'll have to send this spring!

Happy May,
