DARRINGTON — Eager adventurers will have to wait a while longer for a fully open Mountain Loop Highway.
Snohomish County initially declared the gravel strech of road between Darrington and Granite Falls open May 20 — just in time for a beautiful weekend. But there was miscommunication, public works spokesman Matt Phelps said.
The road is open from the Deer Creek gate to Barlow Pass.
But the stretch from Barlow Pass to the Bedal gate and campground is still closed because of snow and maintenance needs. The county doesn’t have a date for when the full stretch will be open.
