FYI: North Cascades highway closes for winter

PASS STATUS: Closed for the winter.

Dec. 1: We closed the pass for the winter after finding a foot of new snow at the gates, two feet higher up, several slides and unsafe avalanche conditions.  

Check the closure history page to see when the North Cascades Highway has typically closed the last 30 years.

Be notified when we open the highway in the spring by subscribing to our North Cascades Highway e-mail newsletter.
