9月21日以来,由于劳工山火烧毁了39 324至39 753英亩,占10%,自9月21日以来关闭以来,Blewett Pass上方的97号美国高速公路在149至178里站之间重新开放。 U.S. Highway 97 over Blewett Pass has reopened between mileposts 149 and 178 after closing since September 21 due to the Labor Mountain Fire, which has burned 39,324 to 39,753 acres and is 10% contained. 驾驶车操作和减速仍然有效,从165里站到178。 Pilot car operations and reduced speeds remain in effect from milepost 165 to 178. 消防人员仍在使用公路,因此司机必须保持警惕,在跟踪驾驶车时避免过路或关机,并预计会延误。 Fire response crews are still using the road, so drivers must stay alert, avoid passing or turning off when following a pilot car, and expect delays. 几个露营场和路头仍然关闭,过道可能再次关闭,但很少得到通知。 Several campgrounds and trailheads remain closed, and the pass could close again with little notice. 敦促旅行者检查世界SDOT的实时旅行地图,并规划备用路线。 Travelers are urged to check WSDOT’s real-time travel map and plan alternate routes.
