The Labor Mountain Fire will keep US 97 Blewett Pass closed. This means we will see more traffic on I-90. Pls know we have several work zones between the summit of Snoqualmie Pass and Vantage that will create some added travel time.

WSDOT East @east.wsdot.wa.gov · 25d

US 97 Blewett Pass remains closed between MP 149-178 due to the Labor Mountain Fire. The pass has been closed since Sept. 21. Fire remains active on both sides of the road and visibility is low. There is no estimated time to reopen. When Blewett is closed, that puts added traffic on I-90 and US 2.
