Logging project in the Methow that will send 12 logging truck loads over HWY 20 twice per day.  Should be interesting to see the shenanigans at the 4 way stop in Winthrop between the tourons who wander around eating ice cream cones while staring at their phone and logging truck drivers in a hurry to get to Darrington.

Load one will very likely heading past the 4 way prior to any ice cream consumption is occurring at Sheri's.  I live in Winthrop and have been commuting over Loup Loup to Omak and have also been passing loaded log rigs coming over the pass at 6:15 or so from cutting that is occurring on DNR land on the east side of the Loup.
