Im leaving Wednesday night. If chinook is open im all over it, But it doesnt sound like it will be.

Im thinking maybe FS70? It takes half the time than Chinook and is quite a bit lower in elevation. We came back over it last year and we were turning onto 410 in Greenwater in about 30 minutes. I called the Forest service in Enumclaw and they said there is no gate, but nobody has gone over it from the FS. That doesn't mean its not passible yet. Im gonna do a pre-run next weekend and see where the snow is. It would save me ALOT of time over both White and Snoq. pass.

hwy 123 will NOT be open this year do to rock slide and wash out.

Bunk1 · May 11, 2006

I bet fsr70 (pyramid pass) will be closed. I might go there this sunday to see for sure.

With all of the sled use on that road I bet there will be a huge and hard snow pack on it for some time. Plus there is a ton of shaded areas on that road. I towed over that once... Never again in a 2 wheel drive rig(sp)
