I-84 through the Columbia Gorge closed due to fire

If anybody has plans to drive along the Gorge, you need to make different plans.

Clicky

The fire has jumped the Columbia, so expect the Washington side to be a mess as well.
  • Trucks are taking US26. Cars can use WA14. There are tracks on both sides of the river.
  • Now what's Portland going to do with all their garbage since it has go to Arlington, typically by truck or train along 84.
  • At least they know who the kid is, although that's no help for the people affected right now.
  • this fire situation is really bad. it used to be they only closed the gorge for snow storms, now we have some irresponsible kid lighting fireworks and burning down the gorge and everything in it.
  • We came through on Sunday, it was getting bad. I'm not surprised they've closed it off.
