When you get off I-90 the slog north on 97 can be horrendous (and will be much worse now that this is the only real option), but it looks like that's the only way in and out for the next several months.

A shame - we always love going there (and we usually avoid the big 'celebration' weekend crowds). We'll make sure to try to add some trips soon and try to get some additional $$ into their economy. We have a timeshare that we can use that's only a block or so from Front Street.

Plus, there's now a blizzard warning out for the Cascades, which will make everything even more 'fun' negotiating the passes.
