harlan is off jacks pass rd. at the gravel, take a hard right...

tonga is off foss river rd. it's about 1-2 miles further east on hwy 2 than beckler river rd.

general rule of thumb, if stevens is getting snow, both of those humps will be getting slightly more snow... just depends on the system and whatnot, and some science mumbo jumbo..

stevens = 4000ft.
harlen =4,500ft
tonga 5,000ft

approximately...

harlen got wash out 1/4 mile up .

The Index side of Jack's pass is 5 miles at most, but I've heard that that side of jack's pass is washed out, so now you have to go in from the other side being skykomish, I don't know for sure, but i would guess and say 15 miles?

Gold Bar to Index - 7.5 miles

Gold bar to Skykomish - 20.5 miles
