Heavy rains Thursday night caused several mudslides on SR 410. The Washington State Department of Transportation closed a two-mile section of SR 410 between milepost 105 to 107 at about 9 p.m. Thursday night.
Drivers are being detoured around the closure on Nile Loop Road.
The road could remain closed until Saturday or even Sunday. Crews started clearing debris early Friday morning. One of the slides were about 8 feet deep and blocking the roadway. There is approximately 2,000 cubic yards of debris that needs to be removed before the roadway can reopen.
For more information regarding the closure please visit the Mountain Pass website or the Chinook Pass website.
