Driver dies after truck goes off Mountain Loop Highway

VERLOT — Snohomish County sheriff’s officials and firefighters worked Thursday to get to the driver of a truck that went over a steep embankment on a Forest Service road off the Mountain Loop Highway.

The truck driver, a Granite Falls man believed to be in his late 40s or early 50s, was found dead at the scene, Snohomish County sheriff’s spokeswoman Rebecca Hover said.

Officials did not release his name or other information because the man’s relatives had not been notified, she said.

The man and the truck were found along Forest Service Road No. 4060 near the Big Four Ice Caves, Hover said. A passerby spotted the truck earlier Thursday and reported the wreck at the Verlot ranger station.

Given the unstable terrain of the location, it took two tow trucks to bring the pickup back up to the road, she said.
