Brock Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Wanting to head up to helens. How Much snow is on the sno-park? is it plowed? Looking for someone who has been there recently. I know a LOT of snow has fallen lately. It's been clear of snow for several weeks now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 the sno-park should be plowed as that is what the over-priced washington sno-park pass is suppose to pay for. i am sure there are some sledders whove been waiting and waiting to get their rigs out in the area so im sure they've been happy to have the snow level finally drop and get access there too.

Water Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) april 9th listing on forest service web page says that due to snow the road is closed ~6 miles from marble mnt snow park--you can only partially get up 83. Â ahhhh... i see WA only services snoparks until the 31st of march. bet they saved a bundle this year with low snow. hope so at least.

Kapman Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 The way I understand it there is a specified amount alocated to each sno-park. When it is used up, no more plowing. It is a private contractor that does the work at MSH. $43 for a season, $21 for a day pass! Those of us in SW Washington are paying to keep the I-90 coridor open. I will try to get a current road report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanchez Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I called and they said they only contract the plowing until the end of March. In April it's up to good old chemistry to plow the roads. As of last weekend you ARE allowed to "try it" if you think your vehicle can make it up the road. But if you get stuck you'll be the asshole who's blocking the road.

Kapman Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 The Oregon permit will not work with Washington plates in a Washington State Sno-Park. I get a head ache every time I try to reason it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
