KITTITAS COUNTY, Wash. — Blewett Pass along US 97 was closed in both directions Monday morning due to heavy snowfall, disabled semis, and collisions.
Washington State Department of Transportation East (WSDOT East) shared the update at 6:30 a.m., adding that there was no estimated time for reopening yet.
The Washington State Patrol also reported the closure, citing multiple disabled semis blocking the roadway due to snow conditions.
By around 10:15 a.m., WSP and WSDOT confirmed that the spinouts were cleared, the road had been plowed, and US 97 Blewett Pass had reopened.
Traction tires were advised for all those planning on taking the road next.
Spin outs cleared, road plowed and US 97 Blewett Pass has reopened this Monday AM with traction tires advised. Cheers to crews who are still working to clear roads after this morning's snow flurries. A reminder that winter is on the way, so now is the time to prepare! @wspd6pio pic.twitter.com/kXIjpEpqlu
