The north end of Forest Road 25 will be CLOSED for 10 days September 24th – October 3rd. The road will be closed just past Iron Creek Campground south to Benham Creek, by Wakepish Sno-Park.
The closure is necessary to permanently repair winter storm damage sustained at mile post 12.0. The permanent repair will consist of removing existing road fill and damaged pipe. A new 72” diameter pipe will be installed, road will be backfilled, and a new asphalt surface will be placed.
Due to the small Clear Fork Fire in the Goat Rocks Wilderness, there is an Emergency Closure in effect. The closure is bounded by the Pacific Crest Trail on the east; US Hwy 12 & Trail #76 on the north; Trail #61 (Coyote Trail) on the west and southwest to its junction with the Pacific Crest Trail. The Pacific Crest Trail #2000 is CLOSED between Elk Pass north to White Pass.
Short, one lane sections of Forest Road 90 will be closed for repairs, resulting in minor delays to travel. Road work is between mile post 0.0 & 16.7. Take care when driving on forest roads.
The temporary fix to Forest Road 90 at the slide area around Crab Creek was completed. Forest Road 90 east of Curly Creek Rd and west of Lower Falls Recreation Area is recommended for High Clearance Vehicles only.
Sedans and other lower clearance vehicles traveling to sites along the Upper Lewis River should detour through Trout Lake to FR 23 and west on FR 90.
ATVs must remain on designated trails and in areas specifically designated for their use in the Motor Vehicle Use Map or MVUM, which is available free at all forest offices and online.
Winter conditions in higher elevations could exist on forest service roads. Please be prepared for winter driving conditions when visiting the these areas. Carry chains, extra food, blankets, shovel and water in your vehicle when traveling the forest roads in winter and spring.
