Cascade River Road open to it's end!!

[NCNP Rangers]

Hello all, North Cascades National Park climbing rangers here. We've been starting to get out in the Park much like many of you, and wanted to provide some recent info. For starters, the Cascade River road is now open all the way to the Cascade Pass parking lot. No more bonus hiking.

 

Here is a link to our Conditions Blog: North Cascades NP conditions blog

 

Note that this link takes you to the Boston Basin specific portion of the conditions pages, there are also pages for Shuksan, Eldorado, and the catch all, "Other Popular Routes." We try to update these pages weekly during the summer with information from wherever we've been lately. If you go somewhere interesting and want to share, email us at noca_wilderness@nps.gov

 

Be safe out there, happy climbing!

Thanks for the post and update!

 

Didn't know you were running a blog for the area. I really like what the NPS is doing with blogs for climbing in other parks and look forward to following along with NCNP as well.

Should you update your blog to reflect that it's open? As of July 3rd, it still has a closure alert and says the road is gated at milepost 21.
