- US-2 over Washington’s Cascades is posted 60mph, but it should be posted no more than 50mph for most of the route in my opinion. Do not be intimidated by drivers trying to “push” you to speed up. Drive smart and stay safe. Many, many deaths on highway 2 in both directions over the years between Everett and the Stevens Pass summit.
- Google Maps has streetview the whole way. WSDOT has a number of traffic cams. There's also some paving work at the west end (around the town of Snohomish). Traffic can be heavy in the Monroe to Gold Bar stretch, with commuters and vacationers.
The main grade east bound is the final loop before the summit.
The stretch through Tumwater Canyon (before Leavenworth) is relatively flat but twisty as it follows the river. The passenger will enjoy the views more than the driver. Not a Clue wrote:
