Reply to comment by whelanbio in Question about Leavenworth by Bluejay_1234

If there is or has been bad weather on Blewett pass (97) around when you’d take it, don’t take it. Especially if you’re not used to winter driving. Stevens (2) will be safer and easier to drive over. Granted with the recent fire 2 might be in rough shape.

But if it’s been clear for awhile then Blewett should be fine.

I drove from Leavenworth to Cle Elum a few years back in a major snow storm. I would not recommend it. That was in a CR-V, and I felt like death was around every curve.

100%! I forgot the name of Blewett thats why I said go around through Wenatchee and avoid all passes.
