How are the passes

You Talked of my favorite place. The Cascades. How are the passes this year. Passable? Or did they have to close them still with all the snow LOL.

Re: How are the passes

We have had an incredible amount of snow in the cascades. This has been one heckofa winter. Snoqualmie pass (I-90) has only been shut down for avalanch control... what a job to have. Load this small cannon, blow holes in the snow and make a snow slide. And they pay to have this person do this. NO FAIR!

Anyway, this pass is the best groomed in the state due to the heavy amount of traffic, so closures are rare. The other passes have been opened and closed off and on, but not bad. They are used to clearing lots of snow. This year, though, it's lots and lots of snow!

Her first APT. lol Hope the area is better than it was back when I was there. I know your my big brother but stop worrying about me I'm A woman now. LOL Man I miss her.

Re: How are the passes

A really useful (though fairly graphics-intensive) site for Snoqualmie Pass conditions is I90 Traveler Information
There's a drop-down menu for other routes for which it has information.
