Stumbled over the road(s) by mistake. was headed from SEA to Hood river. Checked maps for something more fun than just taking 97 over Satus Pass (which is not bad at all, a very pretty route, but having done it so many times, open for something different).

So found Wiley Road that looked like it'd cut over a bit to White Salmon, never having us go east to Toppenish, and then Signal Peak Road. But big mistake as we were forced to turn around twice, making the entire trip to Hood River easily take 3x as long as planned.

Still not until we had seen the sweet pavement and flowing turns (even in a SUV) a bit on the gorgeous Signal Peak Road.
But why there could not be a sign by White Swan, saying road is blocked off 5 miles ahead - or whatever the distance was - beats me. But maybe it's there today. Have not been back.
