Downey Creek — Tuesday, Apr. 11, 2023

I just checked and the road is closed to all public entry until further notice.

The closure order is here:

--------------------------

I drove to the gate on the Suiattle road today. The road is currently closed at about MP 12.3, just after the cemetery. I would check with the Darrington ranger station before trying to access any trailheads out there. Tenas Creek road is also closed.

The gate is likely to get bypassed by those that do not respect the closure. Please don't just assume the road is open if the gate is open, you could still be fined for being in a closure.
