Recreation Information:

• Recreation Report: Weekly current report of skiing, hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, wildflower and fall color viewing, mushroom and berry picking, firewood cutting and all other recreational activities along a 150-mile stretch of Highway US 12 through White Pass crossing the Cascade Mountain Range in south-central Washington State. Much of our information comes from these sources:
  • Forest roads damaged from the Dec. 9 flood:Many Forest Service Roads have suffered damage due to washouts, landslides and fallen trees. Because of roads inaccessible due to washouts, landslides and snow, many roads have not been able to be inspected. Probably many damaged areas exist that have not yet been found.
    Please call the ranger station 497-1100 and report road damage you find!
    A wonderful current report of roads damaged  in the Dec. 9, 2016 flood, with notes regarding their repair, and good pictures is available at: bit.ly/roaddamage2016
