YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) — The National Park Service released a long-awaited plan Monday for rebuilding a road in a popular North Cascades outdoors area where floods have wiped parts of it out several times in the past two decades.
The Stehekin River Valley, reachable only by air, boat or on foot, is a popular stopping point for backpackers on the nearby Pacific Crest Trail and in the North Cascades. The area sits in the Lake Chelan National Recreation Area and is managed by the National Park Service as part of North Cascades National Park.
