Ashland Lakes — Monday, Nov. 12, 2018

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

This road is difficult to travel. There are many very large/deep potholes, one that was about 15-20 feet across. The road is cut by run-off creeks, in some areas 12-18 inches deep and as wide. I turned around at about 4 miles in, when the road narrowed at a creek culvert. Steep slope on one side, soft shoulder on the other, my wheelbase was wider than the "road". Four wheel drive and high clearance can navigate the road easily, but I would not recommend for passenger cars.
